turbo/supercharger

[nathanbounce]

Hi guys does anyone have a supercharger kit or turbocharger kit for sale for a 07 hr z?

[Stew]

Any further info?

 

That is pretty vague and as turbos and supercharger behave differently you should probably decide which you want.

 

Also, do you want basic kits, full kits?

 

Are you in the uk and the car RHD?

This place is turning into that US forum that we all know and hate.

 

Is it really so hard to look through the million and one threads already in existence across many forums about forced induction options?

 

The fact that you've not even decided on turbo or SC makes me sceptical that you've got a specific kit in mind, which further casts doubt that you have the remotest clue what you'd be getting youself in for by going for forced induction. FI on Zeds is not easy or cheap. In fact that rule applies to upgrading the power full stop.

To be fair Danny the lads asking if there are any for sale not for info about them.

 

Are you looking for the full shebang or are you sourcing the other bits that you need separately?

[taffyjason]

This sounds like deja vous from a certain member!

Agreed, but what I was attempting (through the fog of 5 hours sleep in the last three days) was to get across that there is no real vortech-stylee 'bolt-on' (specified by OP) option for the VQ35HR, and as such it would be a very good idea to work out what would fulfill the requirements of his build before just buying whatever kit happened to be available.

 

In an attempt to actually be helpful instead of ranting: Single turbo on the dual intake HR engine would be silly and as far as I know thay don't exist. For 400bhp you'll be looking at a mild twin-turbo build (several options there) or a GTM rotrex supercharger kit (expensive). Both can be supplied and fitted by Abbey Motorsport, who are a trader on here.

[simon da silva]

Hey mate.

 

Take a look at my350z.com

 

There are alot of cool complete kits incl ECU injectors etc. up for sale at decent prices.. they all produce around 400bhp +/-

Nope, my SC is currently on SouthernSpeeds car with a forged motor

 

Mine was for a DE as well not a HR.

 

OP - Good luck

The bulk of the Abbey crew has left for Germany today for the Nitro Olympix so don't be put off if you don't get an immediate reply. They're worth hanging on for though.

 

And incase you're not familiar with what they get up to on their weekend jaunts .....

...GTM rotrex supercharger kit (expensive)...

 

The GTM kit is bolt-on, the instructions are good and they send you an Uprev map to install yourself once you've sent them the diagnostics.... it obviously won't be as good as getting a decent uprev on a dyno though.

At least then you have an UpRev license so can then get dyno time to tweak the map if need be.

Man, I really failed at expressing myself last night, lol. Yes, the GTM kit is bolt on, but I wouldn't really put it in the same class as the vortech price-wise is what I meant. Vortechs are dirt-cheap, but the cheapest bolt-on kit from GTM is the best part of £4,500 before you pay any shipping, import tax or VAT on it. I expect you'd be looking at around £6,000 for the kit to your door, but it seems to be worth the extra money if you can afford it. With the numbers that people have got out of this kit I can't see why you'd buy a TT kit anymore unless you'r after truly stupid power.

 

A note on the GTM uprev maps; initially they only intended them to be a safe-ish map to get the car to a tuner, but some people (Americans) didn't realise this and there were quite a few problems with cars running like crap and/or breaking down when run long-term on the base maps. I don't know whether this problem still exists or whether they have improved the base map, but personally I'd want to have such a high-power car running on a custom tune specific to that engine, but maybe I'm over-cautious.
