options are blitz or power enterprise.
both will give you about 35-40 hp (sorry i cant find dyno numbers right now....)
what transmission type do you have?

In my opinion, I wouldn't go the way of the supercharger for the 1nz. Sure, you will be making more power, but think about how much power it's going to take for your 108 hp engine to turn the supercharger. It would probably be more efficient to use a turbo instead, because I'd rather have the parasitic loss come from an exhaust restriction rather than something running off the crank. And with either, you're going to have to lower the compression and upgrade the fuel delivery.

Rather than turbo supercharging is was safer, more reliable. Running on pulleys dont have to worry about cool downs because its not running of the exhaust, it takes less Hp to make Hp through superchargin than it is on a turbo. And constant power no boost lag n stuff. I recommend the power enterprise kit, Blitz have been probs with not enough fuel even with the piggyback ecu. Power kit utilizes stock injectors n ecu but bigger fuel pump. Also heard the outcome of HP in the blitz kit isnt worth the 3g's.

actually you dont need to lower compression and it wouldnt be worth it cuz after prolonged boosting over 8psi the rods are gonna fail. i'd go supercharger over turbo but thats cuz it's easier to take on and off for me.

i was PM'ed a while back with someone sterring me away from the Blitz blower. a team member has a power enterprises second owner blower. he had something fail with it once and the company replaced the part that failed for free. thats what i like. supercharging is more reliable that turbo IMO. bou your decision and your money will make the choice.

The BLITZ® Compressor System was designed to give maximum horsepower and torque without sacrificing reliability and drive-ability. All BLITZ® Compressor units come complete - oiled filled and ready to install for trouble-free maintenance. All kits are designed to be highly responsive while maintaining fuel efficiency. The Compressor unit is electronically controlled by an activation switch 3 different settings (Low, Med. and High) - allowing the car to respond to the individual's driving style.
Power enterprises


i like them both. i like the 3 boost setting for the blitz but my recomdation is upgrade the fuel system and change your oil before you start havin fun

i really like the blitz because ive seen it on the Vitz and i beleve its been out for a while.
