ok..i am not certain, but i believe that Ripp Mods makes a supercharger kit for that car...i know that they do make superchargers for tibs, not sure if they are for your engine. they make an amazing product from what ive seen, and offer great tech support.

Hi,

Go the supercharger route. You get boost from idle and it will feel like you have a 3 litre under the bonnet.

Much better result. Torque is available all the way from idle and will not taper off up in the rev range.

A turbo will take time to spool up. Your engine probably lacks low down torque and may not be as well served by the turbo.

The supercharger will help shift all that weight!

Hoping this helps.

Cheers,

Andrew.

that is your opinion and this is mine. Ive built a couple hyundai turbo kits for people and they love it! Aturbo is far more efficient than a supercharger, and does not put as much stress on your motor. A supercharger runs from a belt that is constantly loading your engine and stressing it and it actually uses hp to make more, where as a turbo is not causing a load especially at idle. And as far as the low end torque that is what a launch is all about, you just boost the turbo off the line and you have the same effect at low end. and as far as the it feels like a 3 litre under the hood whoopdy MY GSX feels like there is a rocket in the back I have built many turbo cars and they are far superior to a supercharger, a super charger can only make about 80% max efficency where a turboif it is set up properly can go well over a 100% Also with the turbo you can drive normally and not boost the crap out of your engine and load it all up all the time and you can controll your own boost with a boost controller rather than having to find different pulleys and such.
thanks TONY
