Message for you. If you do it yourself then you can drop the engine off the list. I'd imagine there will be a chunk of money invested after gathering the manifolds, turbos, plumbing, intercoolers, injectors and getting your hands on an ECU with a program that will run it well. ;-) ;-) It still requires an engine pull to install though. :-/

The idea of a supercharger is more appealing as it probably can be built so as not to require any major modifications. I dont know what the superchargers out there are capable of, but using one that has a peak efficiency rating at around 11psi at our flowrate would be ideal. I really would like to see them (Z1) go this route and make another trip up there to dyno tune it. :)

I'd think the supercharger route may be less expensive to do especially if you are having it done as it wont require an engine pull to accomplish. You may have to pull the front fascia off to get the IC and plumbing in and perhaps use a TT radiator, but we'll see what happens...
