Use the $5k as a down payment on a different car.

Find a way to turn that 5k into 30k. 5 won't even pay for the turbo kit

It won't happen, to make that kind of power and be able to control it you're looking at at least $20,000

dreamer thread... the cost to hp gains in this platform sucks. 5k won't do anything for you. good suspension, exhaust and tune will take most of that

Welcome- but your opening post just shows how little you know about these cars. As others have said, there's no way to gain that kind of reliable output for $5K. As for your options, I'd also suggest you sell your Z to someone with more realistic expectations and use the money to purchase another car...

just googling the words "350z turbo kit" or "350z supercharger" would have answered your own question..

Not trying to bash on you but if you're on a budget, you shouldn't be pushing your car to that power. Just being realistic here.

Autozone spoiler
eBay front lip
"EAT, SLEEP, RACE" license plate frame
"illest" sticker
Tow hook

plastidipped emblems, grill, door handles, wheels, windshield, etc

You might not actually have 600hp, but it'll sure look like you do.

Doesn't work that way, you need a diffuser to go with that stuffed animal!
