Stillen Stage 2 Supercharger vs Turbonetics Single Turbo Kit
I have read through a lot of older Threads regarding which way to go with FI and since technology constantly changes, I would like to revisit this topic now since there are more data/experiences out there.
I am looking for feedback from 350z owners who may have owned either a Stillen Stage 2 Supercharger or a Turbonetics Single Turbo Kit and then switched to the other.
We own a 2003 Nissan 350z and are looking to add either a Supercharger or Turbocharger to the motor as our winter project. I have read and read and read many different threads of information on both induction systems and it seems like you can make a case for which one you want to go with if you research long enough.
I realize the likelihood of having someone respond to this that has experience with both inductions is slim, but, I had to try.
Even if you own one or the other. Do you like what you have or would you have gone with the other option?
Thank you in advance for anyone's feedback (pro or con) on these 2 induction systems.

between stillen or turbonetics and if those you absolutley only choices that your finance allows then turbonetics hands down. you should consider the boosted performance kit that is probably less than a turbonetics kit new and has a tremendous growth potential.

I had the Stillen stage 1 thru stage 4 kits and they are a waist of money for the power you get.........my Greddy twins even on low boost will kill a Stillen stage 4.I would go with boosted performance's kit if looking for a single turbo and it will also kill a Stillen stage 4.

Thank you!
Thank you to the rest of you that recommended Boosted Performance, based on your experiences. This is actually the updated information I was seeking. I will definitely check it out.

Well, not to be a DICK either. But, I DID search the FI along with all of the other sections. And yes, this has been discussed and yeas, I did read all of them. However, all of the discussions I found and read were dated and I am looking for more current information and discussion from recent experiences. I thought my original post mentioned that.
Thanks for nothing!

I'm searching the web for the Boosted Performance Site and there are a lot of them out there.
Would you or anyone else have a current link for the 350Z kit? Thanks.

No Stillen, lots of heat and noise and little HP...I did stage 2 and what a joke. Stage 4 was better but still about 75% of what they claim on their website. Skip the Stillen....

Based on my research, and to keep our Z streetable without constantly working on it, and to add some HP without tearing into the internals, it looks like I should not push much beyond 400HP or approx. 325 -330 WHP.
