Turbo, Supercharger or Nitrous or a combo?
« Thread Started on Aug 24, 2005, 8:44pm »

For me i would do a supercharger because in auto-x i need that botom end pull where as turbo will lag there. No nitrous for me cuz i dont wanna blow my engine up ::)

A properly size turbo will not lag, or very little if any. I know many auto-x's that are turbocharged who don't have any problems going in and out of boost. Both supercharging and turbocharging have their pros and cons. You just have to choose what is best for you.

These days, superchargers are making 300+whp... Food for thought.
