lol... love it, NO you don't technically need anything but the supercharger. However, those extra mods really do help.
I'm hoping to see how cheep I can build a hks turbo kit, want to keep price at $3400 w/o tune: turbo kit $2600 + downpipe $100 + custom intercooler piping $300 + intercooler $400... my goal is just that... maybe I can find a good small intercooler for $200 and throw in injectors for $3400. Luckily I met some people at my job that know places that will do custom piping work (in upper westechter it is hard to find these things) |

I don't think anyone really does. I'm not going to be running more than 7 or 8psi so tuning will come later.. My main concern is the downpipe... but that's not till next summer, gonna buy a diff and a clutch first (supporting mods that should be done)

downpipe wouldn't be that hard to make if someone knew what they were doing. It's really just a pipe with a couple of bends, flanges at the ends, and a bung or two for sensors.

its hard to say "best." With superchargers you usually get lower safer numbers and being that the supercharger is belt driven you get instant boost when you step on the pedal. Superchargers have that beautiful whine, and they make great daily drivers.
Turbos make POWER! You usually get some kind of turbo lag because they are not belt driven. You can drive under boost and not lose the gas mileage as well. I love the sound of a turbo and a BOV as well. Its hard to say but i want a turbo kit so Ill vote that lol. |
