Superchargers for the 370Z?

I agree. There are many newer "Roots" style blowers that have made leaps in efficiency. Look at the new ZR1 vette blower. And others like it...

Yeah, I agree. Twin screws are still the top dog but I doubt Stillen will use them.

Mammoth blower FTW! Uses the least amount of engine power... It saved the crappy 4.6 modular motor 80HP alone on top of the power it added! Imagine what it could do for the VQ37!

But for bragging rights, a dual centrifugal kit would be sweet too.

I want a roots type blower so I can get massive torque from 2,000-5,000 rpm. I don't care if the efficiency and power fall at from 5,000 rpm to redline compared to a centrifugal blower because we rarely need to spin this torque monster that fast.

I have the money in hand as well for a supercharger. I pretty much echo everyone else here when I say that Turbo's are nice for what they do, but I would like a supercharger.

Anyone have an idea as to when a quality supercharger kit will be available for the 370? I just want to know if I will be looking at later this summer, 2010, late 2010 or even later? No since in earmarking the money if it'll be that long. Thoughts???

I'd want to put one of those on an LSx Corvette or 03-04 Cobra.

Good times.
