Default supercharger questions

I know this question is going to irritate people


but I am looking to get an idea of how much power I can get out of a stillen supercharger. I am looking to do a vq swap into my s13 and would like to utilize the "blower" style stillen supercharger (stg 4 pulley), 264 cams, and a gtm 4.2l stroker kit. Obviously there would be plenty of other things to go along with this setup but that is the basic setup I am looking at.

I would like to produce roughly 450 - 500whp and would like to know if this setup would be adequate?

[QUOTE=str8dum1;9466153]no , stillen supercharger is too small. its used on a 2L motor. A bigger roots style blower would work fine but not what stillen sold

no love for stillen SC kit here, go with vortech more options and more HP gains available. However surprised no-one has chipped in with the "get a turbo" comment yet... LOL

the stillen kits are a waste of time on the 350z and cant make any power with that little so called blower...either go vortech or turbo. those stillen kits are hard pressed to get anywhere near 400whp, have no tuning ability pretty much and are just garbage, save the headache and get something worth it...

The Stillen VQ35DE supercharger kit was called 'the best NA mod money can buy'... and no, it is not capable of reaching your goals. Be glad you checked before trying

Stillen offers a Vortech application..but you're looking at 412 CRANK HP or 350WHP.

So I guess no one else makes a twin screw for the vq?


the vq alone will take up enough room I don't want to have to try and cram a turbo setup in there too with a twin screw I could just cut the hood. I want a twin screw setup because of the responsiveness, if I can't make a twin screw happen I will just end up going with a V8.

No. Nobody else makes a twin screw kit for the VQ.

Also, GTM sleeved motors have a poor history/reputation on this forum for failing within very few miles and/or short time period. If you insist on getting a stroked VQ, I suggest you do your research and look elsewhere.

If you want lots of torque, you're better off going with a turbo setup on the VQ or doing an LS V-8 swap instead.
