Exclamation engine mods for 350z

ok i have a stage 3 supercharger for my '03 350z. still got stock CAI and stock exhaust from headers back. I have not touched anything else on the car besides that. I am trying to figure out some great things to do that will give my the best gains in hp and torque.

Turbonator or a stage 4 electric supercharger, if you can handle the new power.

I would upgrade the vtek to stage 3 so it will work in conjunction with the supercharger.

If not you can always get a turbonator for increased vacuum.

alright so upgrade the blower, possibly to stage 4.. which is pretty much what bigger injectors, bigger fuel pump and smaller pully right? besides that what is a reliable maker that can give me the best hp/dollar ratio for like CAI, and exhaust, which is what im trying to look into now

Stage 3 is not good enough, he has to go with the stage 5 but I don't think he's ready for the turbonator. That set up would bump him over 750WHP!!!!

wow, the love from the 350z crew.

00zero, when you say "stage 3" do you know what you are talking about? What type of supercharger do you have....if in fact you do have one. Was it on the car before you bought it or did you have it installed? What fuel/EMS kit came with the car? Let's start with this first.

? He wouldn't have this problem if he would add a NISMO decal on top of his windshield. That adds an extra 10hp.
