Default Opinion: What's the Safest Force Induction?

Opinion Needed: This question might of been answered but here it is. What is the safest force induction for our 350z motors? I'm more concern on reliability than full boost to full nothing.

I know but what is the safest out there? Or what do we need to improve in our internals to have our motors survive?

If I had to say one is SAFEST, I'd say a Vortech is on the safer side. The pulley limits its boost and it has a very linear power band with lower torque than a turbo.

I've owned multiple Greddy kits and none have ever let me down but don't just think brand. A great tune, supporting mods, maintenance, and keeping boost conservative are the biggest factor in keeping the motor healthy.

Seriously OP? You've been a member since 2007 and expect to be spoon fed on a FAQ... Quit being a lazy fawk and start reading the "Forced Induction for Noobs" thread stickied at the top of the FI section.

https://my350z.com/forum/forced-indu...for-noobs.html

I expect this kind of horse crap thread from a new member with less than 10 posts, but not from a tenured member. C'mon man.
