Boost Boy Member 21 Member For: 18y 28d Location: Adelaide Posted 04/01/08 05:29 AM Share Posted 04/01/08 05:29 AM I meet this guy a couple of months ago cruising on the Semaphore esplanade. We got talking & he popped his bonnet & showed me his supercharge setup. Just curious to know if anyone out there knows if many N/A owners are going down this path?

South Member 323 Member For: 18y 2m 8d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 04/01/08 08:59 AM Share Posted 04/01/08 08:59 AM Why not I say, for 5k you get yourself a 300+kw car, that's pretty impressive, especially when you can pick up a BA XT for a third of the price of a decent XR6t. Supercharger means instant torque and instant throttle response... Our turbos spool pretty bloody quick, but I would put my money on a supercharged XR6 tromping an XR6t with similar power (to the speed limit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said it makes about 240-250kw at the wheels. I reckon the trans was slipping heaps though or maybe I'm just used to a manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
