Vortech V-3 SCi-Trim Supercharger System & Charge Cooler - Polished (2003-2004 Nissan 350Z Non Rev-Up) 4NZ218-018L
Polished V-3 SCi-Trim Complete Supercharger System for Nissan 350Z
The Vortech V-3 SCi-Trim Supercharger System & Charge Cooler (PN 4NZ218-018L) is a complete, fully calibrated bolt-on system engineered specifically for the 2003-2004 Nissan 350Z Non Rev-Up. This polished configuration pairs Vortech's internally lubricated V-3 SCi-Trim centrifugal supercharger with an air-to-air Charge Cooler to deliver consistent, efficient power with OEM-like drivability and a high-end underhood appearance.
On an otherwise stock Non Rev-Up 350Z, this system increases output to approximately 412 horsepower with 7.5-8.5 PSI at the factory redline. Vortech's centrifugal design provides strong top-end gains while remaining easier on the engine than turbocharger-based setups.
V-3 SCi-Trim Supercharger Technology
The V-3 SCi-Trim is the evolution of Vortech's proven SC platform. The "i" stands for improved, featuring a patented oil control system and a state-of-the-art centrifugal compressor stage developed in Vortech's supercharger lab. With up to 75% adiabatic efficiency (SAE J1723), the SCi-Trim generates less heat, reduces drive power, and produces more usable horsepower - translating to better durability and engine safety.
Air-to-Air Charge-Cooled Configuration
This system integrates an air-to-air Charge Cooler to lower intake air temperatures and increase charge density. The result is more consistent power delivery, improved thermal control, and headroom for future upgrades.
