Z1 Motorsports has assembled the ultimate HKS supercharger kit for your 350Z/G35. Having installed and tuned numerous HKS Supercharger kits on the VQ35DE platform, we have gained the necessary knowledge and experience for developing our own complete turn-key kit which we feel offers the best in quality, performance, and reliability. All included components below are essentials needed to properly install the HKS GT Supercharger kit on your DE equipped 350Z or G35.
We find that the HKS GT Supercharger offers the best drivability and linearity with its new Version 2 blower. Producing power quickly and smoothly from the bottom of its power band all the way to its peak, the new HKS GTS8555 Supercharger is perfect for street and track use.
This comprehensive kit includes the following:
Z1 recommends the use of an upgraded oil cooler with this kit. An optional Z1 25-Row thermostatic kit is available below. A complete list of oil cooler options can be found HERE. We also offer upgraded radiators for better cooling with this kit which can be found HERE.
The included startup map is to be used for bleeding cooling system and driving to the dyno. This map will have a 4000RPM rev limiter to prevent failure prior to tuning. A completed dyno tune IS REQUIRED before the car can be operated under normal conditions.
The HKS GT Supercharger Kit (Version 2.0) for the VQ35DE is one of the only supercharger kits truly designed to support 500HP out of the box. With the use of the new GTS8555 centrifugal supercharger from HKS, this kit has high capabilities on VQ35DE's especially those with built engines.
Full time forced induction on HKS GT Superchargers offer quick acceleration without lag with a linear torque characteristic at low and mid RPM's. Low mechanical noise and compact design ensure smooth and quiet operation on street driven cars. Simple installation requires no difficult modification.
HKS GTS8555
HKS has developed this Supercharger to improve performance over the standard naturally aspirated engine by offering lag free linear forced induction power. The centrifugal GT Supercharger allows the torque can be stable at all range of the engine rpm, and the engine output can increase smoothly from low to high engine rpm.
