which kit to buy???
hey guys, looking for some insight on which FI kit to purchase for an 03 350z. I'm new to z's and new to FI. I've done some searching but haven't gotten the answers to the questions I had. I'm leaning towards superchargers because they seem more reliable with the Z's than any turbo (correct me if I'm wrong). My question is, should I go Vortech, Stillen, ATI Procharger? I'm looking to spend around 5k for the kit, with another 1k for tune. A couple friends of mine will help with the install (they've done a lot of turbo installs) and then I'll take it to performance factory or stage 6 and have them look over the work and tune it. Any advice would be great. thanks
If I had to choose a S/C Id go with the Vortech hands down. The Stillen is garbage and I dont like the intake/FMIC on the ATI...you need to remember costs of guages, and other things as well. Good luck

wow, looks like vortech is the winner. which injectors should i get? 440? im looking to make decent amount of power but still being able to daily drive the car. guages exhaust and clutch are not a problem, i have money for those things as well. and some more incase i run into problems. my budget for the s/c is around 5k. what numbers will i be looking at with a good tune? is it a big deal to get a utec and map sensor or will a flash suffice?

UTEC FTMFW!!! 550cc would be perfect in case u wanna go higher boost at a later time/pricing is about the same......

lol trust me, you will not be looking at a good install under 10k, if you're going to go big, you're going to pay big, even if you just want moderate numbers, you're still going to have to dig deep into your wallet.
