just wonderin, why go turbo instead of supercharged?

 

because the supercharger i have, gives me 450-500 horse, if i do the turbo i want, instant 800

 

I would love to get my Muskrat up to 800 hp, but I'm onceagain thinking about selling it. I can't think of a good reason to keep a car that I never drive.

 

KX... Superchargers are better, because they have no lag.

 

that was what i was wonderin'. i was thinkin he had a real good reason, i suggest a bigger supercharger. turbo's dont give you crap til theyre in their rpm range. before that... they just slow you down. and not to meniton with s.chargers you can instal a bitchin' blower/hemi and get even more out of it, and not to mention the badass look of a 4-barrel hemi stickin' outta your hood. it just screams I GOT ALOTTA BALLZ UNDA THE HOOD!!! plus if its a street car youll never be above 4000rpm's in the street for more than a few seconds (unless you have a standard and want it to be) and the turbo will do nothing but slow you down and **** up your mpg's.




p.s. im not tryin to bust your *****, if you want the turbo go for it...
im just kinda an "opinionaited" person

 

yeah i know lol, acually the set up i was doing is called Twin Charged, its turbo and supercharged. only ZZPerformance has done it once, and thats the shop that does my car, they are well known in the states for 3800 performance. I am one of their prototype cars, so when they have new ideas, they try it on my car, so the twin charged idea, i will be the first in the united states to have it. 800 horse with turbo and supercharger!

 

I forget which tuning shop did it, but there was a company that does twin-chargingwith the new Mini Coopers

 

IMO id reckon to say to yank that boom boom out, you got all that go fast in the car, and you have 200lbs of dead weight in the trunk. remember shows dont go, and goes cant show, just throwing that out there

 

i take the subs and stuff out at the track. they come out very easy.

 

a lot more efficient - witht he same internal mods to the engine you get much higher power returns.

ever seen a turbo grand national tearing a 9 second pass? they are a 3.8 liter turbo 6cyl -- the gtp is basicly the same engine only FWD and supercharged.
