We just installed the brand new hks supercharger for the 350z. Here are some pictures from our shop.

 

first ive seen installed looks nice... how does it perform

 

As you guys can see, we poslish most of the part on the kit. The car pull hard on the low and mid range but need more top end power. Good for street/track car.

 

Here's a video of the 350Z idling with the HKS Rotrex kit.

Good job, tony!!

 

Nice! I'm just cringing at the price......

 

Tony,

It looks nice... Thanks for letting me drive the car with the supercharger

Here's my driving impression:

This kit has a lot of low to mid-range power. I got the rear-end loose in first and second. It freaked me out the first couple of times.

The top end really does not have much power... But for stop-light over powering the power is definitely there.

BTW the zip tie is still there... readjust that pipe already...

Looks good...

 

did you polish the kit?

 

Are there any exhaust mods on the car? Just wondering if that might help with the top end.

 

Add test pipes and watch that top end climb!

HKS ROCKS!!

How was the install? How long did it take, and was it very easy.. It looks like cake?

 

are you gonna put it on a dyno?

 

So check this out... There was a disclaimer in the HKS instructions do not place aftermarket headers on the system.

Supposedly there are some issues if you do that...

 

nice! looking to see how the kit'll do

 

Interesting....I wonder why. What about high flow cats and a cat back system?

Looks sweet, btw!

 

Nice! Sounds like a space ship in that video when the guy revs it.

 

nice..... how much is that kit?

 

what should one do if they already have aftermarket headers/cats/ypipe/exhaust combo? how bad could this get

 

the kit list for like 7500 bucks...

Street Prices about 5900 or so...

People if you are intersted please PM or email me.

Power down low... It sounds like the Stillen SC. Has anyone had chance to compare?

 

Jesus, it sounds like a space ship.

Can the computer that comes with the kit be tuned?

If it can't then a possible reason they dont want you putting aftermarket headers on there is because it would increase the amount of air flowing through the system and without the computer putting more fuel in, it would run lean and possibly lead to detonation.

If this was the case though wouldnt they have mentioned something about not removing the cats etc?
