yeah, I love how people bashed me on that, even after the first few kits people got were incomplete and required heavy modification.

Turbonetics is the wya to go. If you can't afford it now, wait until you can.


the revauto s/c kit may have made 300whp, but the power curve isn't nearly as good as that of a turbo QR........a turbo QR makes more useable torque and doesn't make peak hp near redline (like the s/c does)

lol, I'm most definitely not a rep for turbonetics. I pay for all my parts.

the turbo makes more power, easier. Hell, a supercharger TAKES power to MAKE power. It's parasitic....whereas the turbo runs off what is essentially waste.

That is the best way I have ever heard it described. To take it just a step more, a turbo runs off of exaust gases, where a supercharger runs off of a belt attached to the engines crank shaft.( More belts the motor has to turn "PARASITIC ")

Superchargers however, do not have lag like turbos. Turbos usually dont spool before 3,000 RPM, where a supercharger gives you instant boost as soon as you hit the pedal.

Turbo will give you a better, and more stable power band, and a higher peak power sooner than a supercharger though.

Still your call, but the turbo is the way to go as far as I am concerned.

i know turbos give way more power, but in the long run a turbo can break down ur engine, especially on how drive ur car....now will a supercharger do the same?, cause i was thinking of putting on in my altima...and i might buy a spec v, and i drive about 125 miles a day..and i know a turbo wont be cut out for it
