Stickers have more horsepower and cost less.
I don't think anyone has ever had an increase in hp/tq using this product on a Z.

Of course before you asked this question you searched for 350Z drivers who have installed this mod? How many did you find?

i dynoed my turbonated Z at 368rwhp. Maybe that because I ran dual turbonators. Twin-turbonated. And i picked up an additional 17mpg.

I have been running turbonators since I first got my Z (see signature - first mod-). It is far and away the best mod I have installed to date. My gas milage is awesome and the HP that it gives is unreal. For this price EVERYONE hsould have a turbonator on their car.

it would be much cheaper just to do a toyota prius swap with your Z. that electrical engine can make way more torque than our 3.5 liters.

My favorite thing about the turbonator is when a piece of it breaks off and gets sucked into the intake manifold...it makes an awesome sound...

i cant believe this guy is aloud to post, and that you would condone it to be truthfull.
these new guys are obviously NOT reading the forum rules nor the warning before you post stating to SEARCH...
yet the only ones seeing the warnings or bannings are the ones that state the obvious and tell these guys to do the world a favor and see a Dr. about having their reproductive organs removed so we dont get more stupidity in the forums in the years to come

are ya mad that a turbonator Z can clean your vipers clock!
turbo as a first mod, not necessarily. Id suggest learning to drive your car while its NA and then think about a turbo.
