Has anyone done this? Or would it be easier to supercharge?

The compression ratio on the Z-SE engine isn't great unfortunatly. Van Aaken did a kit but its no longer in production as a few cars running the kit decided to blow... and that was running at 0.3 bar! So it doesnt take well to turbing as standard

The SE responds great to N/A tuning. Shawspeed specialise in tuning the SE engine. They can easily get a drivable 170bhp for a resonable ammount of money
