Its a matter of preference. If you want safe, go with the stillen supercharger, thats about the safest forced induction kit you can get for the vq35. There are other good supercharger kits out there that will probably give you more out of the box power like vortech and procharger, and with those two you dont have to get a new hood or alter you hood like you do with the Stillen kit. With all supercharger kits you have to maintain the belts. There really isnt too much maintenance to do with turbo kits and they typically give you more power, specifically torque than the superchargers do. They all have their pros and cons so you need to research whatever you are thinking about. One advantage of a turbo is that you have the ability to increase the power more easily than is the case with a supercharger should you choose. Turbonetics and APS make single turbo kits. JWT, APS, Greddy, and Power enterprise make twin turbo kits. Whatever you decide, make sure you have a good tune after the install because that is the most important part of running safely. Personally if i had the dough i would go with a JWT twin turbo kit.

sorry for the quick rant!....LOL

tell you what man....

Talk to MaxxZ, he has the turbonetics single....and Labeatit - PM him he has a vortech supercharger...then maybe PM Zmedic he had the Procharger and now has a turbonetics single....then hit Marchesano...he has or had (who knows with him what the hell he has now...LOL) a nAPS Twin turbo...
this way you can get opinions from actual people who owned or still own these parts..

just a suggestion
