Nice, I'm debating on either the tvs or swap to turbo. I would like to stay with the supercharger cuz everyone else in town turboed lol. I already have a meth kit sitting in my room waiting for me to install. Only thing is I don't know what size nozzle it is...

geez some of you guys on this forum are ****** stupid as ****...

1st of this was posted in teh 2.4 section.... wtf are 2.0's responding for?

2nd, comparing boost pressure isnt completely pointless and i do understand that pressure is based on restriction but here's why i asked the question anyway.

anyone that has put a blower on the 2.4 more than likley has the following mods, I/H/DP/E, these will affect the restrictions (boost level) and since most people with the setup have them all done it shoudl be very close.

a tune has nothing to do with restriction, its just a tune, the setup is gonna make the same boost regardless of the tune..

the point of this thread was to see what other ppl with the setup was making and to obtain information to diagnose an issue i was having, but whatever....

Hmm, lets see why we (2.0's) are responding .... Oh yeah, because we are boosted

I for one was not comparing my boost levels to a 2.4, because that would be plain retarded. My only comment was refering to the fact that it is very hard to say what someone should be boosting on a certain setup since so many other factors come into play. You dont need a 2.4 to make that comment.

After years of this being said since the first mods were avail to us LSJ's, even on the LNF, no one listens. I have given up on saying it. You will too one day. Hell, I boost 17psi now, two years ago I made 20-21psi. I'm hella faster now.... 264hp vs 342 now...

Btw, yes I know this is in the 2.4 forum. My post is still relevant to the topic

Just like the other guy said

would rather drive a 370whp TVS car then a 400whp Turbo car. TVS power band > Turbo power band.

I know its not 450 but what the heck are you going to do with that much power anyway?

Turbo cars are a bitch your always hitting boost and wasting gas when i was told that they were putting k03's in the new TC i almost fell over why dont you guys just go out and buy a GTI and do a k04 swap lol. i mean if i'm running 13.6 on a bad tune and only 269 think what damage i would be doing with 300 something hp please note i only have 218 pounds of torq.


turbo is always cheaper and you always get more in the long run thats why everyone goes for it and that sneeze u hear its power being wasted!

superchargers are for grown men you dont see classic chevys running around with big ass turbos and wastegates
