powerlab turbo kit owners

Powerlab turbo owners, I was planning on putting a Vortech supercharger on my BUILT motor but I've got second thoughts and thinking about going with the powerlab ST kit. How is the reliability of the kit and were there any problems with the install? Most importantly, how much power did you gain after the install? I'm wanting to reach 500WHP safely and make my car a daily driver.

Post on my350z. Nobody here has the kit to my knowledge. The gt35 kit on a non-built motor pulls out consistently 400whp right out of the box.

There are 3 G35's with powerlab kits currently. One of them was picked-up from intense last weekend (My350Z username foreignsoda).

My350Z user Jeffie7 just had his installed an tuned and he made 383whp on spring pressure.

I believe foreignsoda's car @8.5psi with pistons and rods made like 460whp

with a nice built motor you should definitely work a deal on the Gt37r turbo upgrade as well. That will put you closer to 500whp without much work.

a set of greddy twins would have less lag at that power as well.

I'm sure the Gt35 is big enough for now... especially since I'm running stock compression on built motor..... my mechanic Chris at Elite Imports says I'll be hitting boost at 3000K............ crazy!
