Default Quick question about Vortech

Hi,
I am wondering does Vortech supercharger for Rev-up will fit on a non-revup?
Thanks

No.

..you'll at the very least definitely need a new braket to get a revup kit to work in a non-revup engine

I thought the difference on the bracket is the Revup kit got an extra hole while the non-revup doesnt.

Does not work. It's like trying to fit a HR catback exhaust onto a DE motor. You can fit it, but why? Just buy the part made for your car. Whole bracket is different. Search is your friend. This has been discussed many times.

Please read this to get more info:

https://my350z.com/forum/forced-indu...questions.html

And here are pics of the brackets, they are shaped differently and fit differently on each particular engine.

Bottom line...the revup bracket will not work on a non-revup engine...

There was an old thread about the cost of making the kit right, and it was something very high and not worth it.

We have done this conversion before. Now, lets see....

The things that are the same:
* Head Unit
* Intercooler
* Discharge Assembly
* Fuel Pump Assembly
* Air Intake Assembly & Filter

Things that are different:
* Main Mounting Bracket Assembly (Around $579.00)
* FMU Assembly (Just needs to be recalibrated and converted to the spring model which cost around $53.00)
* Chip/Stand Alone (Around $810.00)
* Pulley on the blower (Around $89.00)
* Cog Belt ($46.00)


See, the good thing about both kits is that they use a lot of the same parts. And Vortech makes it easy, by allowing us to buy the individual assemblies that are needed. So it will cost around $1,600.00 to convert a Rev-up to a Non Rev-up model. And it should function the same as if you bought the whole complete system.

You just need to speak to the right people. =)

ya but its not like there arent both rev and non-revup used kits available. There is no reason to buy the wrong one and then spend 1600$ to make it right.

I mean my V3 SI trim HP record holding non-rev kit is for sale with everything minus the fuel pump
