    Introductio

    Congratulations on purchasing your

    ProCharger® 2003-2006 Nissan 350Z HighOutput Intercooled System. Read this entiremanual before you attempt to install your

    ProCharger kit. It is imperative that youfollow all of the instructions in the order theyappear in this installation guide. If you haveany questions regarding any aspect of thisinstallation, call us at (913) 338-2886.

    For best results, we recommend reviewingthe installation instructions beforehand, andfollowing the installation instructions closelyand in sequence. A detailed packing list hasbeen provided to assist you in identifying the

    components of your ProCharger system.

    Required Tools and Supplies• 1/4” & 3/8” Socket Set (standard & metric)• 1/2” Breaker Bar & 4” Extension

    • Adjustable Wrench• Hex Sockets• Ball-End Hex Wrenches• Open End Wrench Set (standard & metric)• Flat & Phillips Screwdrivers• Plier Set• Nut Drivers• Die Grinder w/Cutting Disk• Wire Stripper/Crimper• Factory Repair Manual

    Warning:  Your supercharged Nissan350Z must always be run on 91 octaneor better gas.

    INTRODUCTION

     You should also have the following gauges available to properly check the finished installation and monitor

    your vehicle’s performance (especially for testing):

    • Manifold Boost Pressure Gauge • Fuel Pressure Gauge • Wide Band Oxygen Sensor and Gauge

    Gauges should be of a type that can be read from the cockpit while performing a wide-open throttle road

    test. Cockpit or hood-mounted gauges are preferable. In order to obtain usable readings, the gauges should

    measure pressure at the intake manifold and fuel rail. IF VEHICLE DOES NOT MAINTAIN PROPER FUEL

    PRESSURE (50-65 PSI), DECREASE THROTTLE APPLICATION IMMEDIATELY. In some cases, extra vehicle

    modifications can strain the stock fuel pump. If your vehicle has difficulty retaining adequate fuel pressure,

    contact ATI ProCharger about the availability of an upgraded fuel system.

    The engine on which the ProCharger® is to be installed should retain the factory compression ratio. If it

    has been modified in any way, please consult ProCharger staff before proceeding with the installation. This

    supercharger system is intended for use on STOCK, strong, well-maintained engines/transmissions. Installation

    on a worn or troublesome powertrain should be reconsidered. ATI PROCHARGER WILL NOT BE HELDRESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE TO A VEHICLE’S POWERTRAIN.

    For best performance and reliability, always use premium grade fuel (91 octane or higher) and listen closely

    for signs of detonation, which might sound like ball bearings rolling around in a tin can. IF DETONATION

    SHOULD OCCUR, OR IF YOU ARE UNSURE WHETHER WHAT YOU’RE HEARING IS DETONATION,

    DECREASE THROTTLE APPLICATION IMMEDIATELY and please consult ATI ProCharger staff. Detonation

    should not be an issue with a properly installed intercooled supercharger system, though OEM factory-shipped

    engine and parts inconsistencies are possible on any vehicle.

    Getting Started

      Tech Tip: Spark plugs that are oneheat range cooler than stock arerecommended for use with this system.We suggest replacing your factoryplugs at this time.

    1   Remove the battery box cover.

    2   Remove the clips from the passenger’sside battery-to-windshield cowl andremove the cowl.

    3   Remove the fuel pump fuse located inIPDM E/R.

    4   Making sure all tools and equipment areclear from the front of the drive system,start the engine. (This will safely purgeall fuel pressure in the engine for furtherdisassembly.) Be sure to remove the fuelpump fuse before starting the engine!

    5   After the engine stalls, crank the engine

    two or three times to release all fuelpressure.

    6   Disconnect both battery cables.

      Tech Tip:  Roll both windows down atleast half way before disconnecting thebattery cables. This vehicle is equiped

    with an automatic window adjustingfunction. When a door is opened, thewindow automatically lowers slightlyto avoid contact with the roof panel.By rolling down both windows beforedisconnecting the battery, both doorscan be opened or closed without thewindow contacting the roof panel.

      Note:  On some cars with largeraftermarket wheels or loweredsuspensions, tire clearance to theinner fender is very tight. If the 2-1/2”90º elbow presses too hard againstthe inner fenderwell it could cause

    the fender to contact the tire at fullsteering lock. This can be mitigatedby loosening the hose clamps andrearranging the tubing to minimizecontact between the 2-1/2” 90º elbowand the inner fenderwell or, in somecases, may require minor grinding onthe inner fenderwell to remove thehigher contact areas.

    15   Install the intake system as shown onpage 38. Note that the mitered end ofthe blower inlet hose (V) is attachedto the ProCharger inlet using a highstrength Tee style clamp. Note also thatthe front bumper must be removed toinstall the inlet system. After the inletsystem is installed and the hose clampsare tightened, temporarily install thebumper. It is not unusual for the bumper

    to slightly flex the inlet system as thebumper bolts are torqued down. Verifythat with the bumper installed, the hoseclamps continue to hold the hoses tightlyto the tubes.

    Installation Review/Safety Chec

    1   Carefully review the entire installation.

    Examine oil and fuel lines routed nearmoving parts and exhaust componentsto ensure that they are protected fromchafing or abrasion, secure and free oftwists and kinks. All wires and hosesshould be firmly secured with clamps orwire ties.

    2   Ensure that the air filter is installed.

    3   Check and correct all fluid levels.

      Note:  Your vehicle MUST be filledwith 91 or higher octane fuel beforeany hard driving. You should switch to91 octane 2 or 3 tanks of gas prior toinstallation of the ProCharger systemin order to guarantee removal of low

    octane fuel from your vehicle

    4   Start the engine and let it idle for a fewminutes. Inspect for air leaks. 

    5   Shut off the engine and check for fluidleakage, signs of rubbing parts, andother potential problems.

    6   Be sure you have purchased and installeda fuel pressure gauge and/or fuel-airratio meter to monitor fuel delivery whiledriving. Installation of a boost pressuregauge is also recommended.

      Note:  Larger cities (especially in

    winter months) often use oxygenatedor reformulated fuels to reducepollution. Although these fuels havethe same octane ratings as unalteredfuels, some people have experiencedproblems (detonation) with their use.If you experience similar problems, itis advised to reduce your timing or useoctane booster to avoid detonation.

    Congratulations! You have successfullycompleted the installation of your newProCharger supercharger system!

    Tuning

    TUNING

      Note:  This section only applies to fullsystems, which include an EFMU. If youdo not have a full system, additional

    tuning will be required before startingthe vehicle.

    Note:  To get the most out of yoursystem it may prove beneficial to utilizean air fuel ratio meter. Wide band unitsare most ideal when tuning an enginefor maximum performance. Use of awide band sensor will provide datathat will allow you to achieve optimum

    performance throughout your engine’soperating range.

    1   The Electronic Fuel Management Unit(EFMU) regulates voltage to the in-linefuel pump, thus increasing fuel pressureand fuel delivery with increasing boostpressure. The EFMU comes preset witha safe program for a stock installation.

     Your EFMU has been preset, however,

    for best results, your EFMU should betuned by a competent technician usinga wide-band oxygen sensor. This willoptimize the EFMU for each particularvehicle and environmental conditions. 

    2   The EFMU has two basic controls: boostand zone adjustment.

      • Boost Adjustment: Controls the boost

    pressure required to activate each ofthe adjustment zones. With enoughzones, it can be set so that the lastzone occurs at maximum boost.

      • Adjustment Zones: Controls voltagefrom EFMU to the in-line fuel pump.Each zone controls the output voltageover it’s pressure range. The EFMU ispreset with 13 adjustment zones.

      Note:  If your vehicle has a featuresuch as VTEC that results in an abruptincrease in engine torque, it may prove

    beneficial to set the Scale Adjustmentsuch that the step from one slide to thenext (i.e. 3rd to 4th slide) occurs at thesame point as the VTEC activation.

    3   The EFMU resonds to boost pressure,however, since boost pressure is afunction of engine speed, the EFMUtuning can be referenced to engine

    speed. The EFMU Boost Adjustmenthas been for max boost at 8 psi and 13adjustment zones.

    4   Base Zone Adjustment Settings are asfollows:

      Zone Boost Setting

      1 0.6 18%

      2 1.2 23%

      3 1.8 25%

      4 2.5 27%

      5 3.1 30%

      6 3.7 32%

    Tuning

    5   To make changes to the preset values inthe EFMU, use a paper clip to press therun/program button on the front of theEFMU. Ensure the selected input signal isset to “Boost” and press the value knobdown. Follow the prompts and adjust

    each zone accordingly by turning thevalue knob. Increasing the percentagewill add more fuel and decreasing thepercentage will result in a leaner mixture.Press the value knob down to select thedesired value.

    6   Using a dynometer or a road test with awide band oxygen sensor installed, runthe car to redline with the throttle wide

    open, noting what RPM range each zonecorresponds to. Also note the Air-Fuelratio corresponding to each zone. Adjustthe zone settings in 5% increments untilthe desired Air-Fuel ratio is achieved(typically about 12:1) in each zone. Beprepared to abort the test at any sign ofdetonation or excessively lean conditions.For additional information, refer to theinstructions supplied with the EFMU.

    Supplemental/Race Notes

    7   High boost applications require highenergy ignition systems for propercombustion. If you are using a stockignition system on such an application,the plug gap must be reducedto approximately .035” to avoid

    extinguishing the arc discharge. The useof spark plugs one heat range colder thanstock is also advised.

    8   Proper pulley alignment of a cog beltdrive system is critical. Pulley alignmentcan be checked by observing how thebelt tracks on the pulleys. The belt should

    track between the pulley flanges, perhapsslightly touching one or the other flangedepending on engine speed. Typically, thebelt tracks against the rearward flange atidle and moves forward towards the frontflange at higher engine speeds. If the

    belt exhibits a strong tendency to rideup either flange, or you are experiencingexcessive belt tooth wear, you have apulley alignment issue. Pulley alignment ismost critical with the smaller blower belt.Problems with pulley alignment are rarebut can be easily fixed by shimming thebracket as shown.

    Warning: Underdrive pulley systems

    that decrease the size of the crankpulley should not be used. Increasingthe size of accessory pulleys mayrequire the use of a longer Micro-V belt.

    If belt rides up thisflange, shim here(0.02”-0.04” thick)

    Operation and Maintenance

    OPERATION  AND M AINTENANCE

    Cold Starting

    Never race your engine and ProChargersupercharger when your engine is cold. Allowthe water temperature to climb into operatingrange for several minutes before driving above2,500 rpm, to ensure adequate oil lubrication.

    Ignition System MaintenanceBecause of the vastly cooler intaketemperatures delivered by intercooling, Youshould be able to run full timing on yourintercooled ProCharger application, but be

    aware that with forced induction and full timingyour 350Z will continue to pull hard all the wayto the redline, and for maximum performanceyou should now shift just prior to the redline.Avoid hitting the Rev-Limiter, as the factorycomputer shuts off fuel delivery, resulting ina dangerous lean condition, detonation andpossible engine damage. If your spark plugsare more than a year old or have more than10,000 miles logged, you should consider

    changing them before driving your vehicleunder load. Spark plug wires should bechanged if visibly damaged or when resistanceexceeds factory specifications.

    Air Filter Maintenance Your air filters should be cleaned periodically,potentially as often as every 10,000 milesor 6 months, even though a service intervalof 50,000 - 100,000 miles is quoted by themanufacturer under normal driving conditions.

    A clogged air filter will result in decreasedboost levels and vehicle performance. Be sureto re-oil the cleaned filter before re-installing.Always operate your vehicle with an air filter,failure to do so may result in damage to yourProCharger supercharger and personal injury!

    Fuel Quality

    With a properly installed intercooledProCharger supercharger system, detonationshould not occur. For the best performanceand reliability, use premium grade fuel (91octane or higher). Listen for signs of detonationafter refueling, and after replacement ormodification of any fuel system component(s).If detonation occurs, reduce the throttle andlocate the source.

    Belt Replacement

    The belts which turns your ProCharger willstretch after initial run-in, and should beretightened after the first 100 miles, if notsooner. Tighten the serpentine belt sufficientlyto avoid slippage, but do not overtighten, asthis could cause damage to the ProChargersystem’s precision bearings. A new serpentinebelt may require several tightenings duringits initial stretch. Tighten the cog belts to0.4” deflection as outlined on pages 22-23.

    When removing belts, ensure that they arere-installed to turn in the same direction asbefore. Should you reuse a thrown belt andfind that it needs frequent retightening, thebelt is damaged and should be replaced.

    Belts operated frequently under high RPMconditions may elongate and lose tension. Useof a shorter belt often remedies this condition.ATI always recommends the use of Gatespremium quality Micro-V and cog belts.

      Your ProCharged 350Z uses uses thefollowing belts:

      • Gates Micro-V #K060615

      • Gates Power Grip GT2 Cog Belts#560-8MGT-30 and #880-8MGT-30

    These belts are available from ATI as well aslocal auto parts and industrial suppliers.

    CORRECT OIL LEVEL

    ProCharger Oil LevelThe ProCharger supercharger’s oil level mustbe checked periodically to ensure the properlubrication. The dipstick can be loosenedusing a flat blade screwdriver or a coin. Wheninstalled, the oil level should remain between

    the minimum (MIN) and maximum (MAX)indicators at all times.

    Warning:  Filling the ProChargerhigher than the maximum level onthe dipstick can lead to bearing andseal damage. The supercharger is asealed unit and should not normallyrequire the addition of oil betweenservice intervals. If excessive usage isnoted, the unit should be sent to ATIfor inspection and repair. The dipstickfitting should be firmly tightened afterchanging or checking the oil level.

    Oil Change IntervalsThe first oil change should be performed at500 miles and at 6,000 mile intervals thereafter.Drain oil by removing the drain plug. Clean

    drain plug after every oil change. Thedrain plug should be firmly tightened afterchanging the oil.

    GeneralWhen removing the dipstick, be sure to retainthe nylon washer. A spare nylon washer ando-ring is included. Use only the ATI suppliednylon washer and o-ring when servicing the oildipstick and drain plug. A discoloration of the

    oil and residue on the drain plug may occurduring the initial oil changes. This is normaland will gradually decrease. For the properpositioning of the ProCharger supercharger,the serial tag should be pointing upwards.Installing the ProCharger supercharger inanother position will cause inadequate oilingand supercharger failure. If you have anyquestions about the maintenance of yoursupercharger, contact ATI.

     Warning:  The C2 superchargercontains no oil from the factory. Theunit must be filled prior to use. Use onlyATI supplied oil in your ProCharger. TheATI oil has been specially formulated forthe bearings in the ProCharger and useof oil other than that supplied by ATI wilvoid your warranty.
