...why not just a duel supercharger. I suppose that is when cost becomes a significant issue. No more so, than twins.

Belts and mounting become even more of a pain. Plus the drag of two blowers is a lot of strain which will rob a lot down low. Turbos don't have that problem.

Dude, I need someone to sponsor me! I've spent the last two years paying off all my mods and I'm still not done.

Per Twitter - the idea is to have the G37 supercharger fit on VQ35HRs but no plans yet

I hear you. It's just finding a shop on the East Coast that makes you feel comfortable in going with them. Too much talk about, this, that, and the other makes me not want to do it.

I agree, having a good tuning shop near is key unless you are willing to ship or drive your car a long distance. I'm very lucky to have a great shop like UMS Tuning here in AZ.

the problem with our cars is we got screwed over BIG time. Infiniti Releases the New G35 Mid-End 2006. Car comes out 2007-2008. Early 2008 G37 is Exposed. Then it comes out. So really we got F'd...left no time for manufacters like stillen to make any Forced Induction Kits. I doubt they'll make one for our car only because our car is considered a Executive type car. I heard this from my friends brother, who is up high in Magnaflow. He still has sources through every major company. The only way I see of us getting a forced induction is switching to the g37 sadly. Otherwise going all motor is our next big step. Still puts out good numbers but not as good as Forced Induction. Thats my thought...Wish I would have got my GTO instead of my G now. ((

Thanks guys for the interest and following the information. We should have more information trickling out soon.

We're finalizing the tuning as well as the intercooler. The car has been driving around with the unit installed, everything is completely on track.

Yes, we started with dual R&D on both the G37 Coupe (installed on now) and the 370Z, and once finalized we'll definitely be looking at the 3.5L applications, but know that things look good now for this to work, just wouldn't want to give information out until we've tested it.

dghboybigboy, don't give up on us yet, we're just about to release the kit, we have, and will continue to look to supporting your application..

Well we'll appreciate any updates relating to the 3.5L applications as that's what the majority of us have been hoping for.

Also a realistic ETA would be nice to have.
