New Z1 supercharger kit

filip00

I'm interested in a simple installation, a reliable build, and 450hp is absolutely enough for me. I would like to do it myself, so if it's a possible jackstand garage DIY installation, I'd be happy for it. Shipping is "an issue" in any case, since I'm in europe...
But I mostly wanted feedback, opinions, such as yours. Topgun being a better option - any specific reason?

You can make "only" 450 with Topgunz' kit and, should you ever desire more, have the maps setup with your tune and changed via Ecutek map switching vs having to pay for extra pulleys (Z1).

Either kit will be able to be put together in your garage but there is less metal cutting with the TopgunZ kit. If you plan on adding a fuel return kit, you'll be under the car either way.

Finally, Z1 is notorious for overcharging for shipping, even within the States. What do you think they'll charge you? Just saying...

Finally: support the innovators not the imitators.

Beyond the tune:
I was having trouble with heat at the track. Because I have a wastegate set up with the Topgunz kit for limiting boost, I just swapped out springs trackside. It's WAY easier than a pulley.

One of the biggest differences you’ll notice from the Z1 and Topgun dyno charts is at the same level PSI, topgun is making WAY more torque across the powerband. I would agree that it’s better to install the Topgun kit, I’d rather cut through plastic than metal.
