i dont kno if this is more of a tech or talk subject, so feel free to move it, and i appologize for bugging you guys about this common question, but what would be better: turbo or supercharger(of any kind)
i have an 02 gt, and with the basic bolt ons, but i am saving up for forced induction, and i am torn between turbo or supercharger. i have recently built 3 hondas with turbos on them and seen awesome gains. normally between 200 and 250% hp gains. that to me is very impressive. ive researched some supercharger sites and saw that they only advertise up to about 75% hp gains. and ive seen some sig's that show 400+ rwhp on stangs with superchargers. the hondas me and my bro built were pushing 450whp as well. so i am wondering what kind of gains turboed stangs are making, and what it would take to achieve that. i kno alot of people talk about the parasthetic loss from a supercharger, but with the new superchargers, it is very minimal, and with the newer turbos, the lag has also been minimized. i also kno that the hondas are able to make such great gains because they can rev about 2500k more than a stang, so another question would be: how could i make my stang rev higher and be safe with it. sorry for the length, but i need both side before i spend $4000 on my car.
thanks for the help guys :SNSign: rules!!
