Re: super and turbo charging

the only problem with most superchargers is that they are model (car) specific. You cant exxactly fabricate a bracket for most superchargers. There also is a type of supercharger called a centrifical supercharger that is a belt driven turbo more or less. It is set up the same way as a turbo, just w/o the exhaust housing. I would turbo a car before i would supercharge it....unless it is a V6 like my Bonneville and in that case i would supercharge it because there is a ZZ2 supercharger for the 3800 series engines. If it were a 300ZX, i would turbo because there are kits. I guess if it was a V6, it would depend on what's available for the car. Otherwise i think that a turbo is much easier and there are more choices.
