400 SC HP vs 400 TT/ST HP in a long race (100mph+) the turbo has a good deal more mid/high end.

You can't get above 350hp on the stillen, the vortech is a nice project supercharger tho for sure.

Turbo is a better use of money

Ok, you really need to search especially in MY350Z.com. Go to the FI forum and you'll learn a lot but I wouldn't post until you do some searching (There are at least 5 days worth of reading so go start now).

Having said that, Vortech and Stillen are two different kind of SC so this will depend on your driving habit.

Stillen:
*Good for stop-light to stop light racing
*don't expect to see more than 360whp even on Stage 4
*Power always available even on low RPM but kinda dies or flat after 5500RPM

Vortech:
*Good for highway racing.
*Power is up on the RPM (4000RPM+) under that it feels like driving NA
*Has good power potential (can go 400whp++)
*You have to really drive it hard to really feel the power coz you wont hit full boost until close to redline. Reminds me of my Honda days (Vtec baby!!!)

Lots of people do have Turbo on their car. Even with Vortech I suggest to have a VB upgrade for better crisp/fast shifting.
