superchargers are belt driven bimmer boy.

Its a very expensive project to get working for very little power.

oh well i dunno

i dont want a supercharger just wanted to know how much power it would put out

[bumpstop325 0]

about 40% increase

they are about 65% eff. where turbos are 70-85% eff.(ball park fig)

there are pro's and con's about each. trade offs is a big thing. turbos are way more harder to manage and setup correctly. dont get me wrong, SC's are, but NOT as hard.

depends on wot type of SC unit you want weather you need to have to make a custom intake manifold.

also depends where you want ur power from

SC........lower down torque, no lag

TC........high end, lag

apparently you would spend an extra $1000 ontop of the sc to get everything up to strength, eg. flywheel. Is it really worth it is the biggy?

I'm not seeing why you would need a custom intake manifold - the stock one would work.

Again with a 2.5 ltr I6 there is no lag on a small turbo either. I'd still wager its harder to get a supercharger working and you'd probably only get 210 - 220 ish hp (flywheel)
