I don't have the funds to do this anytime soon, but I was just curious: Is a supercharged (previously n/a) anything compared to a TII? Assuming it's done correctly. I'd prefer something other than, "Just get a TII."



Heck, most questions I ask don't even apply to me (yet), but it's just nice to know.

My friend's 91 supercharged GTU was damn fast. He could keep up with me when i was boosting 10 psi. It did end up reaching the end of it life though, but it never blew up. I dont believe paxton makes that kit he had anymore.

Will it ultimately ruin the engine? I remember seeing a kit somewhere on some how-to site. Can't remember which one, but I could find it again if need be.

i don't like the idea of not being able to change the amount of boost w/o touching a button or screw whenever u like.
