Yeah I have been worried about those Blitz kits coming of age - saw a rebuild kit on eBay but literally know nothing about taking that on. Another reason why I contacted Speedlab hoping that somehow, someway I'd potentially be able to nab a supercharger if the Blitz was not possible. I don't know much about differences between 2nd and 3rd gen cars - I was hoping that in the case of the Rotrex setup, it would be rather universal and would work between generations on the 1NZFE. According to the Speedlab page it fits all gen 2004 and up.

I inquired about fitment on a 3rd gen (I love facelifted 3 doors), but they could not guarantee fitment on a USDM car. Looking at the pics, I can only speculate that if there were fitment issues it would simply be a matter of modifying the aluminum bracket and/or the charge pipes/couplers - though it all looks rather simple. I also don't know much about Unichip - seems rather proprietary as far as who is able to install and tune with it. $4k is a lot to part with and then deal with potentially modifying/retooling some components to work and then deal with management. Though perhaps it could be purchased sans Unichip and I could sort management later. I don't doubt at all though that it isn't a sweet kit and if I could make it work on a 3rd gen that'd be a dream.

I'm going to have to dig thru some old posts on this forum about the Power Enterprise kit and see if it all fit similarly.

Sorry to rant, been weighing the pros and cons and trying to figure how much of a project I want to take on lol. I feel like I'm jumping down the rabbit hole again - last time I boosted a car was 2006.

Missed this post. Have you given more thought to a project? I hope so, haha.

Been a minute since I've been on here. I found a local Blitz kit on craigslist and contacted the seller but never got a response :/ That was before things got pretty fierce with all this corona virus stuff. As such, I am holding off on any big purchases until I see what all pans out due to this.
