I've always wondered - what makes somebody throw money into a supercharger/turbo without doing all the research up front? It seems like a lot of noobs show up asking the most basic of questions - ones that should have been asked and answered before the first dollar is spent.

The words "procharger" and "serious power" do not go together. This has been proven many times over, search and you will see.
Can you say BROKEN BELTS!! If not you better get used to it..............

Help is in the forced-induction forum. You can go from mild to wild depending on your budget. You may be satisfied with just the pro charger and a tune. The tune is for safe operation at WOT to keep you from going lean on fuel.

BTW I have driven in a 350Z with the pro charger. Guaranteed with proper tune it will kick naturally aspirated butt.

NOTE: Several of our members including

Eltness350
ZForce1
Daddy_Z
Bigslim350z

have run the pro charger with excellent results. Just look at their threads for direction.

Beat me to it. How is the bumber, btw?

You need to read, and not just read, but comprehend. Take it back first and repeat the steps in the proper order this time

Fix Bumber
Read
Combrehend
Read some more
Buy subborting mods
Buy subercharger

This way you won't be "am so dumb"

Do you look down the barrel of a gun before pulling the trigger? Buying F/I before proper research and understanding is essentially the same thing.

lol I do agree with everyone but come on fellas.. give the OP some break... OP if your looking for a 350whp/ 300 wtq, I dont see why the Procharger cant do the job. If OP wants a SC and annoying sounds then let em be.

OP did you buy the kit new? or used? how much did you spent?
