Worth turbo-ing an automatic? - Page 3 - G35Driver - Infiniti G35 & G37 Forum Discussion

Long story short, my old car was an 6MT Audi S4. Loved the performance, the power, the handling everything was great BUT insanely unreliable. Traded it for an 05 G35 automatic (didnt want an auto but I had to get rid of the Audi). I love the G, I lowered it, bought wheels, debadged and I am happy with the looks but... I step on it and it just doesnt have the same pull obviously as the S4. Thinking about boosting but was wondering if anyone had an automatic and if it would be worth it at all? Thanks for any advice! I would definitely boost the G. But since it's automatic I would go for a Vortech S/C.

So I called vortech a couple months ago and they couldn't give me an answer.... Its probably because theres not many X out there. Well I have a 05 g35x sedan and I want to go Fi!!! but not sure what are my options I was thinking
1. Vortech SC V2
Pros It will give me quite a bit more hp, cheaper then turbo
cons It might not be enough hp

2. Some kind of single turbo or twin turbo
Pros- Will give me the power I want
Cons- Price, fitment issues etc

So does that mean If i choose option 2 I have to rebuild everything for it to work? I was looking at momentum single turbo but there not around anymore... Any ideas guys?
