Finance Turbo set-up?
I am curious to know if any companies finance turbo or supercharger set-ups? I have the money now to do either but damn thats alot of money to drop at one time and still have to buy rims. I mean I guess if shops do % would be high or if they dont I could probably understand why. Well just wanted to know if anyone had any knowledge about this thanks.

Here's the thing...it's going to be hard to find someone that will finance something that loses most of its value after purchase. Unfortunately in the eyes of financiers, mods are a very risky proposition. Credit cards are not the way to go with their 12%+ interest in most cases. Also it would be almost impossible to repo mods.
Yeah going FI is a lot of money to drop at one time.

something like FI is great if you have the money. but the last thing you want to do IMO is get into any kind of financial burden for something like turbos for your car.
yeah ive put a good amount of money in my car (around 10k) but i did it piece by piece when i had the money.
i couldnt sleep at night knowing i had 5-6K on a credit card for something that made my car a second or so faster

ive said it before and ill say it again.
Do not go FI unless you can afford at a moments notice to replace your engine. unless you have the means, after installing the turbo, to buy a rebuilt engine its a very bad idea. we see too many people who buy a kit with all of their money, then blow the engine a few months later and cannot buy a new engine. then they sell the car bc they have no transportation.
if you have the money now, why not just wait another few months for when you have more money before you do the kit? you dont have to get the turbo now, it will still be there 6 mos from now.

unless you are going to keep your car for a while, buying turbo is useless unless you like to lose massive amounts of money
i know im capable of randomly going to a dealer and coming back with a totally different car... so turbo isnt for me...
on top if you go turbo with stock internals... your boost will be low and it wont be ridiculous amount of power anyway...
i know alot of ppl want to buy turbo just to have the BOV... :P

financing a forced induction kit
I might have the solution for you, we have financing available at are shop Vivid Racing go to are web site vividracing.com and fill out an application and see if you can get financed for the amount of a turbo kit. If you have descent credit and have a descent job to back it up, then you should have no problem. If you do get approved then this is what I would do if I had the money already. What ever you get approve for put it all down, the turbo kit is around 4 grand you will get 180 days of free interest. Even if you don't get approved for the whole amount pay the rest off with the money you have and finance the rest. Use the rest of your money for your payments (just pay the balance off before 180 days)that way you still have money in the bank, making extra money at your job while making payments, building credit, and you have the parts that you want. If you are interested in this, put on the application referred by Michael Marella, My350Z and let me see what I can do for you.
Thanks,
Michael

not a good idea got to pay to play and trust me it will be a never ending cycle cause trust me **** will happen its better to save and play then to spend money you do not already have cause in a few years you may not want it and sell your car and still be paying.
Paypal CC 0% for 1 year and 15K limit... sign me up. lol. Im gonna go the cash route i dont want to buy something like that unless i have the cash to drop on it then id go into debt on the CC to fix it when it breaks 
otherwise your setting yourself up for a rock and hard place situation. (however cause i am doing this and paying for flight training still I currently do not have a FI kit for my Z
