Are there any 500+whp Supercharged G's or 350Z's?

I reached 440rwhp awhile back but like it has been stated before to get to 500rwhp there was issues with belts getting chewed up and we did not have the GTM pulley mod available back then.
There is one or 2 cars which have reached that level Dsports comes to mind but I think he converted to TT also.
I just saw the issue of the amount of money to invest to get to that level out weighed the power gained so I too converted to a TT setup.

I guess the question would be:
What exactly does it take to produce a 500WHP/500TQ SCed G35 coupe/sedan? What parts/work would it take for the engine internals, fuel system, tune, actual SC kit and necessary supporting hardware to safely produce 500+HP/TQ #s?
If someone's done it already, how exactly did they go about it?

With the mods in my sig, I'm making 466 rwhp/389 ft/lb. I can get 500 rwhp, but it would just be for bragging rights. It's hard enough enjoying 466 rwhp without getting in trouble. I would upgrade the stock cats, try a new plenum, upgrade the blower (T-Trim) and a new tune of course. That should be worth more than 34 rwhp. My current tune is pretty conservative on a built block for longevity reasons.

legit set up deang335c6. i ditched my vortech set up when i started building my extra block. 500/500 wont be had with a vortech set up. yes the 500whp can be attained with a s/c but its easier with a tt set up.
btw, deang35c6, is your first or last name dean? my last name is dean. and im in SD. kinda crazy.

500 RWHP is not a problem on a built block. Just upgrade the blower for $1500 when you send it in for rebuild. It's good for 14 psi. I think the piping and intercooler may need to be upgraded. I would never push 14psi through a stock block. LIke I said, the SC will never see 500 ft/lb though.

Actually, Dean is my middle name.

What internals are u running? Maybe u should consider stroking ur built motor and then reappyling everything with a big tune and boost. to see what kind of numbers come out..only if you really want to stay SC..if not best bet is to TT..I am personally getting the V3 and I am only going to run it about 9-10psi tops..looking at the 450rwhp/400ft.lb..gL

Correct...but my comparison was TC V8 vs. SC V8 since they both make similar power while TC VQ vs. SC VQ doesn't. Can't compare the VQ to an LS1/LS2 though.
Is there anywhere that I can get a tuner kit with the T-trim or must I buy a regular kit and then upgrade?
BTW- race gas is not a problem.
