Arrow ATI & Vortech

Got my requested ATI Procharger and Vorteh literature today.

For what it is worth:

I had to pay for the Vortech literature. Although I told Vortech I was interested in their product for the 350Z, NOTHING they sent me discussed or listed the 350Z. It was all about OTHER VEHICLES !!

Do not be taken by Vortech like I was !!

The ATI material was more than complete. It even included magazine articles about their product.

I was very disappointed with Vortech.

Oh, Stillen said they'd mail me a catalog......2 weeks ago. I'm still waiting (not holding my breath though !!).

I would not use that to make my decision. I've been running Vortechs for 11 years now on modified Mustangs and they have always been good to me, even when you overspin them just a tad!!

Procharger has come along way, and I would try their products now, but Vortech will always be number one in my eyes.
Thanks Mike

You can download the install manual from the Vortech site for free.

Well. Let me say this: I installed an ATI kit on a friend's '02 SS camaro and I was not impressed at all with the build quality(pipes, etc). I don't know how the kit is for the G/Z, but they left a bad taste in my mouth. Another friend has a Vortech on his truck, and I am much more impressed with Vortech. I don't know what I want for my G yet(turbo or SC), but I know ATI is not one of them.

The only thing that I can say negative about the Vortech kits design is their choice of air filter location. You basically install (place) the air filter and then the SC and brackets which means you have to either a) remove the SC and brackets to change the filter or b) remove the radiator core support. I am opting for "b".

Call all 3 companies and talk to a rep that knows their product. Give all of them a real chance before making an important decision.

I am sorry for the catalog not having information on the Z/G system. That is a 2003 catalog that was printed before we had the systems available. Hopefully it gave you an idea of how we work and how our products are made.
