supercharger is definately cheaper, and turbo will probably make more power in the long run, but you can be ignorant like me and spend all your money on a supercharger build just to be different....well anybody modding an alero is different, so.......more different and different, like a double different.......lol........ok....i'm done.......i need another drink.......damn.......hmmmm........ok i'm back.........got another drink.....i'm good for at least five minutes..........make that three.......ok seriously i'm done..........

There is alot of random-ness here. another question that comes to mind is intercooling for a supercharger. Ive read that its difficult.

LOTS of options to choose from on intercooling. Meth or Alch. Take your pick. Heh.
WEEEEEEE-PSHHH FTW!

Methanol or Alchohol. Either is injected into the intake path to cool the charge, allowing you to run more boost with less (or preferably no) detonation. Used mostly when a physical intercooler isn't possible due to configuration or space. In the case of LD-9 engines, the S/C does not allow space for other conventional intercooler options, so it is the most likely option to use Meth or Alch for boost cooling.

That’s what i've read, but I have it in my head, that there is a way to use an intercooler, the factory intercooler of a 1st gen. Toyota Supra has both intake and exit tubes on the same side, and i'm guessing that it would work. I haven’t had time to experiment with this idea. I understand that an intercooler with tubes on opposite sides would be impractical, and just would not work.

I have a question, Lets say I route tubing from the supercharger to an intercooler in the front of the car, and put the air filter at the other end of the intercooler, would it work efficiently?

Problem you'll run into in that configuration is that the intercooler will cool the air just a little, and the supercharger will warm it back up again. It's not going to be very effective if at all.

And it'll impose a flow restriction. Doesn't work. Best thing to do is SPRAY METH!

i'm currently working in a custom kit that will use your car a/c but not to cool the car... to cool the compressed air... gonna make a custom lower intake with the evaporator of the a/c that is in the dash incorporated to the lower intake of the car.... think it will work better than water to air intercooler setup since the new ''core of the intercooler'' will be like at 20* instead of like almost 100*... that's a try but I think it will work pretty good because the a/c never heats up and it ads no weight to the car..

I still believe that there is a way, I’m not sure how, but its there, I know it is. I gotta draw it out I think, to better visualize it, but I refuse to believe that its imposable.
