Afternoon all, my names jamie I'm 19 with a couple of mini projects, I'm doing a vtec conversion but my priority is my 1380. I plan on a bizzarre setup for it, a supercharger for the road and a turbo for the track, hopefully ill be able to switch between the 2. So atm I'm just beefing up the block, sccr gearbox, forged pistons turbo ported head etc. I'm not looking for massive power, 125 from the supercharger and around 150 from the turbo would be more than enough. No doubt ill be on here posting for help a lot so I thought I'd give you a bit of a background. I'm also a coded welder so the fab side isn't a problem. I'm also more than happy to send my wage packet into the mini every month as I'm still at home |

with modern turbo's the lag isnt really an issue any more,

On my phone haha! Dodgy enter button. Isn't there any advantage from running a supercharger over the turbo for mid range torque? I thought it would be better just for the turbo lag? On 28th Aug, 2011 Kean said:

Then I'd say go turbo if your wanting it for track use, more power available.

Have a read around there is lots of information about the pros and cons of turbos and superchargers. I would have a good read and look at other cars around to see what can be achieved.
