Default long term decisions.

i have dc headers, borla td exhaust and injen intake. I am currently on the wait list for the crawford plenum, struct bar and the cats. But I don't want to leave a supercharger out of my future plans. If I were to get a supercharger, I would have to uninstall and sell my parts. What do yall suggest that I do? The money i save by not buying those parts would go to my supercharger fund.

The only part that wouldn't be compatible with the supercharger would be the intake. All the other parts, headers, exhaust, HFC, and plenum all compliment a supercharger. Please do tons of research before going FI.

I was told that the crawford plenum and struct bar would not fit the HKS supercharger, the one I am really thinking about.

Now we have more information. HKS supercharger looks like it would still be able to use the penum, but I couldn't tell you from the pics whether or not you could use the crawford stb.

You are asking pretty general questions, so my advice to you is to use the search feature to find the answers.3

I say go for the supercharger. I can't think of anything that won't work with it other than the intake. Just sell the intake and use that money towards the supercharger. And btw, I would consider a different supercharger. Maybe even the Turbonetics single turbo kit. The HKS supercharger is intended for a BONE STOCK 350Z, and is not having good results with the HKS F-Con S and a modded 350Z. Plus, imo it's too expensive for the performance you get from it. IMO, you should consider the Turbonetics single turbo kit (around 4k) or the Vortech supercharger.

If you are going to maximum performance, you best bets on an S/C would be the Vortech or Procharger

if you purchase them, and use them, there is nothing holding you back from selling them if need be in the future, as long as you keep your stock parts. Those items are always in demand here in the z community. And a lot of it sounds compatible with a SC regardless. However, it all depends on the type of setup you are running. But be certain you are getting a SC first before you sell your parts, or before you decide not to buy parts, because you can have a lot of fun with the car with just those bolt ons
