That kit is a custom made kit. I believe the guy said that when it was all said and done that he spent $5500. He ran a 12.6 second quater mile though at 5psi I believe. If you google a 3.5 altima supercharger you should come across his posts. I believe they are on nicoclub.

this was done on a 4th gen as well wasn't it? Someone took a m62 or m90 from a GTP. Wasn't it CraigMack? He got in a crash when test driving it or something

MMhh, I dont know exactly, but its a supercharger kit with advanced technology and given a seperate air filter for this, and it is place prior to the engine so very cool air with maximum quantity will enter into the engine I think....

yeh they have a good rebuild kit for about 5 grand. i hate these 3.5's,lol, i blew the stock motor driving slow, it was consuming oil like crazy. the motor has tons of torque as it is, so i dont see the need for crazy boost on these motors, just a solid build and about 9psi. oh and if anyones interested my 4th gen supercharger kit, is currently for sale.

How does a turbo have better spool than something that builds boost off idle?

But its still RPM dependent. you cant get say 10psi of boost at 2500 rpm while with a turbo you can (just an example ofcourse)

That would depend on the supercharger and turbo in question, would it not? The same supercharger that might not have 10 PSI yet at 2500 RPM might have had 1 PSI at 1100 RPM where the turbo had 0 PSI until 2000+. Splitting hairs, I know, but some people need to be reminded they don't know everything once and a while........right, Streetz?

see that long shaft behind the radiator, there should be a pully on the end of that.
