actually, the elctric turbo...

the turbo-zet, or electric turbocharger (or servocharger, to be more precise...) actually does work. But it does not give you much more than an extra kick at low RPMs. I've met some people who have had it installed, and they kinda agree that it gives about 4 to 5 hp. That's not a terribly big amount, but the thing can pop right in and right out, as it's just a small plastic computer controlled fan stuck into the air intake. It's a little bit of fun, but would surely disappoint the true charger enthusiast.

One point a lot of people seem to miss about the Electric Supercharger is that it's a fan, not a compressor.

Sure. How deep are your pockets?

Another point people overlook in discussing Sentras and superchargers is that no kit exists due to lack of space. The underhood area is pretty cramped.

If you REALLY want to supercharge your Sentra, you will be a pioneer.

Well right now im just doing some work looking around the board and just taking in the knowledge you people are giving off and this winter break while i get about a month off, im going to do something a little crazy, a little devious, a little "charging" so to speak. I dont know you guys will see.

I agree with bahearn....take a look in the engine bay...no space. I mean, if someone made one the size of Neuspeeds for the VWs, then it might fit....but its hard enough changing the damn bulbs in there....try putting in a supercharger...Pioneer? NO. Miracle-worker....yes.
