Superchargers for the 370Z?

Just speculating but it sounds to me like the roots style is out for Stillen on the 3.7? I've also read that it's near impossible to get carb exemption for

Just speculating but it sounds to me like the roots style is out for Stillen on the 3.7? I've also read that it's near impossible to get carb exemption for a non-factory turbo (which means Stillen probably won't be attempting that either). So this leaves only belt driven centrifigul blowers, vortec etc. Can we get a teaser? Maybe a brand name of blower? Is it rotrex? I like rotrex.

I never said that Eaton was out of the question...Just trying to do my job and make my posts regarding this subject as vague as possible hahaha.

You are correct that it is pretty much impossible to get an aftermarket turbo kit CARB legal though.

Seriously though, right now we're just not ready to let too much out of the bag. We're not far from being ready to really get you guys hot and bothered. I really appreciate all of your patience on this. We're holding our cards pretty close to the chest on this project!

Well just hearing that you guys are working on something in the supercharger department and posting in this thread is already enough to get me excited. I won't be supercharging my 370Z till next year anyway, which will hopefully be enough time to develop a great system. Looking forward to see what you guys come up with!
