supercharging is the easy way out. theres no fun in modding a supercharger. you have no way of regulating the boost. |

I agree and disagree with that post. Sure, a supercharger is not as adjustable as a turbo, but you CAN change the blower pullies for different psi. Although, like many people have said, belt slippage is a MAJOR problem with blowers. HOWEVER, I do feel that superchagers are a ligit form of FI because why else would Pro Mod and top fuel run them against N20, and win most of the time? I'm pretty sure they dont use turbos because the huge turbine they would use would probably wouldnt spool up in the 5 seconds it takes for them to run a 1/4. My buddy is putting in a 695CI motor in an 85 drag Camaro and is gonna blow it. The motor alone puts over 1200HP, and the blower will add another 300+. IMO, different strokes for different folks. If someone likes a blower more than a turbo, so be it. And visa-versa. I dont think that there is any BAD form of FI, so badmouthing isnt really going to change anything. HOWEVER, BRAGGING ABOUT OWNING A GT MUSTANG IS REFUCKINDICULOUS!!!!! Owning a Ford is not something that I would want to get out in the open...maybe a vintage one, but nothing new. If people think that our cars are unreliable, they have obviously never driven an American car...lol. I LOVE JAP!!! (but not Honda...sorry. The sound of that starter just gives me the willies) |

It runs low 13's all night long, and then I can drive it to work the next day. P.S. Screw the FMIC, Supra side mount is the only way to go. Keeps the sleeper status I want. |

Yeah, eclipse4auto, i was just sayin in general, a supercharger is not always the lazy way out. I dont even think the sweetest turbo kit will look as sweet as a huge 700CI motor with a huge Blower on top...plus then you can put the huge snorkel hood scoop on. But I do like it when they mold the hood on drag cars to let the turbo suck fresh air right from the hood, that looks sweet!
I agree, turbo for our cars may be more complicated, but the extra effort Im sure adds moster HP, along with the added satisfaction of having a semi 1off job. |

Re: Turbo in 2005 GT
and they actually have two distribiturs for the AAI kit. and just b/c more people go with the SDS doesnt mean its better. most people are lazy and just want to be able to throw the SDS on and go. they dont have to have to worry about tuning.

Re: Turbo in 2005 GT
Fuck RIPP...overpriced morons. They think they are god's gift to 3G's. They have their Boost Cooler, which is nothing more than water injection...and they're selling it for $500!!! You can get a water/meth injection system elsewhere for less than $200. I repeat: FUCK RIPPMods
Edit: Oops...didn't realize this thread had 2 other pages. Anyway, this was in response to the last post on page one. Anyway, glad to hear the DSM guys chiming in here. I hate to say it, since I did own one, but the 3G V6's do suck for the most part. Yeah, you can make semi-decent power with the SDS or a custom turbo setup, but you're gonna put down MAJOR bucks tuning and maintaining it. |
