your stupidity is shown in your answer, you need to tune a proper turbo setup just as much as a supercharger setup, and a belt isn't a big deal just measure and order.........
you sir are an idiot........ |

well in terms of getting it running, it's the same costs, barring the equip. One more reason it may cost is some people may not have experience with tuning a s/c meaning you may have to go to an experienced tuner. Also, you cant turn down the boost if you have a problem because if you want to turn the boost up you have to change the pulley size... meaning more labour. For s/c you NEED to get everything in one shot because if you dont have enough fuel, your engine goes lean and boom.. lol.. turbo ftw |

I retract my former statement. Kyle, your weapons control status is now "weapons free".

yeah, no shit...what are you talking about panda? if anything superchargers are quiet a bit easier to tune.
supercharger isn't really more of a sleeper thing. you can hear a turbo, you can hear a supercharger. when im racing, the other person either knows i have a supercharger or knows nothing about cars...very distinctive loud whine.

no shit..i dont know what are you talking about superchargers being easier to tune, but its ok we all have our certain beliefs, i respect that but i have mine. So at the end it all works out. I am just saying that this guy should turbo it nothing else...i got more experience with turbos than s/c, but its all good its up to the guy to decide..and for me personally i dont care what car it is as long as its got boost, personally its all about the boost |
