Our blower moves air, doesn't compress it. If the Turbo spits out 400CFM, the blower is just going to move it into the head.

Most people don't do it because the people that do the Turbo swaps are usually the people that absolutely hate superchargers, and/or ruined their stock blower from small pullies.

A TVS with a GT35R-GT45R would be an insane car.

Lol if he has a GT42R and is only putting down 327 WHP, he has issues. GT42R is enough to put down 500whp on a d series, let alone a B.

I've seen a couple D series put down 400whp on a GT2871. That is what my plans are for my Del Sol.
