Those "electric" supercharges are stupid..

They wreak havoc on your valves. If you are seriously considering doing a turbo, its worth investing the money in something that will last.

the differance between a superchager and turbo is that a turbo uses your exhaust to compress air and in a sense force feed your car air. a supercharger does the same thing but instead of using exhaust to compress air it is connected to your blets and uses a pully to compress air. both make good power but putting a turbo kit together your self will save you lots of money. my buddie put one togther for $1600.
