A buddy of mine has a connection with ProCharger and was just talking about a good deal he can get on a universal Sport Compact supercharger kit. Got me thinking about if it was possible to adapt this kit to my EJ25 and if it would be worth it. I'm not a big fan of Turbo setups but a supercharger might be a viable option.
Someone slap me in the face with an obvious reason this has not been done yet... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) |

A supercharger is for instant power but it does rob power from the engine to drive
it. Turbocharging is driven off the exhaust with almost no loss of power. The type of driving that I have done with mine I don't need full power right off the line. If you are going to use yours for the 1/4 mile than why not. But if you are going to use it for what it was designed for TURBO.... |
