Default Which one? Vortech v3 or turbonectics single turbo.

Hey, I'm new to the forums and just got my z about a month ago and have started modding. I got a 2003 6 speed touring. Right now I have only done the exhaust and run a Invidia true dual and test pipes. I also got a jwt popcharger but that doesnt matter, I have been really checking out the Vortech supercharger because I am looking for a reliable 375-400whp and I am gonna run off a stock block for awhile and stock internals. My car is a daily driver and has 80k miles on it. Miles don't bother me though because I have plans on doing the internals when I have more money. But the question is Which would be a more reliable 375-400whp for a daily driver the vortech v3 or turbonectics single turbo kit.

Daniel-san! Why purchase the JWT & Exhaust if you knew your were going F/I??? The Z is a kick-a$$ platform. Since there are so many aftermarket choices, the Z can also be an endless money pit. Plan your build correctly, map it out and then execute it. Don't waste time and money along the way. Remember to stay away from Backwoods Billy the mechanic or The Hills Have Eyes Sammy Service Garage, they'll Get Er Dun for sure..

heres what you do, drive it for a year, save up the money, go to the track with just bolt ons and get a lot of seat time then and only then will you know if you want to make it faster and by then you should have researched enough to make your own decision on what to do with your car...

Check out the boosted performance kit. If one day undecided to go with more power you can just up the boost or swap to a bigger turbo.
