Default Supercharger vs Turbochrger

what do you guys think which would make the 350Z better ? and faster ? i 've heard speculations that the supercharger gives you more low-end torque and there is no LAG, when the turbo HAS the lag, but it is more aggressive and kicks in suddenly as it makes your car fly? so what should i choose to spend my money on, i see bunch of Z's with turbos but havent seen a supercharged one yet!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the Search button makes 350Zs faster.

it really depends on what you are looking to get out of your car and what you do with it. Do you track your car? Is it a daily driver? Do you want to drift, auto x? When it comes down to it, a turbo will get you more power then a supercharger if you have the money, but a supercharger is more reliable then a turbo imo. Your question is too broad for anyone to actually help you out. You should search and read like the rest of us. =)

I'm not a fan of telling people to search but you need info on F/I then saying Supercharger or Turbo ot Twin Turbo would give you. Good luck to you and realize that there is more to F/I than just buying the kit.

STICKERS, STICKERS, AND MORE STICKERS!...preferably ones from companies that you don't actually have parts for...i'd say you can expect an extra 8-22 rwhp per sticker, depending on the size and placement
