Turbo or Super Charger
Monday, November 12, 2007 4:49 PM
i know most have read the other thread and i wanted a turbo.. but im not sure how it all works and i read the turbo FAQ lot. im not trying to push 15 psi or anything i want to run around 210-230 HP thats it i dont want to blow up enigine either.. i have some turbo parts.. t3/t4 turbo, wastegate, turbo headers, oil lines.. just need the intercooler kit which i can get off of Andysautosport.com for like 350 for whole kit... i know i need a BOV to and controller but i want to run about 6-8psi for a little bit.. so i dont need that really either... another thing i dont know how the oil lines runs and could i use my stock down pipe or do i need custome down pipe? people say get a super charger but its like 2500, if you see it for less or even have one for sale let me know thanx... and where to get it if it is cheaper.. instructions on how to do oil ines would be great and other opinions are welcome too.

If you already have most of the turbo parts, then just stick with turbo. There will be more options for you in the future with a turbocharger anyways WHEN you decide 200 hp isn't enough

Based on your limited knowledge of turbochargers and other components I would say go the supercharged route. It will be alot less hasle since you will have step by step instructions.

I'm going to agree both with Brian and Wade. Brian is probably right in assuming that you'll eventually want more than 200hp, as boost tends to be addicting (or so I hear >.> ). And Wade is right in that a supercharger is much easier to install/maintain than a turbocharger for people who aren't so experienced. If you only want 210-230 hp, than a supercharger is fine as far as power goes, keep in mind what Brian said

A new fuel pump is not needed in order to support 220whp. If you search you will be able to find out how to run the oil lines and just about evrything else you want to know.
