Default Review of superchargers

I have been researching superchargers like procharger and vortech and they are all close to about 5,000 and up. I Have noticed the kraftwerks supercharger kit is right at about 3,000 has anyone on here had any experience with it and do they know if it is worth having?

The link you provided isn't for a 350z.I wasn't aware of Kraftwerks making a kit for the Z to
be honest.I personally have a procharger kit on my Z and am
quite happy with it.You can find them used for around the 3-4K mark.The procharger kits are highly over looked IMOP.Vortech makes a great kit too.They seem to be more popular but either will get you well over the 350whp range.No matter which kit you buy the tune will make or break your set up.Do some reading on the forum and you'll be able
to make an informed decision!.Goodluck!

I ran a procharger for a while and was pretty happy with it, no complaints, and too believe they are given the back seat.

The down side with the Procharger is that they arent scalable past 8-10psi (easily).

Nothing wrong with Vortech either...

most def dyno tune...

If you buy a used supercharger / turbo / anything with moving parts of significance get it rebuilt/inspected ...

Stillen is the only one I know of that made, basically, a turn-key kit. Are there others?

You should google 'supercharger kit' and '350z' ... you'd be surprised how many kits were made.
