anyone ever tried to turbo charge or supercharge a bus engine? anyone know if they sell turbochargers or superchargers for bus engines. I have heard of the judson supercharged engines but i dont think they still make those. I think it would be pretty neat to have a turbo 914. Just imagine looing at the back of a 914 "914 turbo" I've got a few bus engines sitting around here and a few engine-less 914. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif)

I know of 2-3 guys on the club here who have done successful turbo's on 914 motors. A bus engine wouldn't be much different other than they are built for torque, not high rpm hp. I have a GE case in a 914 right now, bus 2.0. I haven't driven it yet, but have been told it is all low end and I won't like it. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) Not sure if that means it also wouldn't be a good engine to turbo/supercharge? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif)
