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.
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 would rather have a supercharger, but, noone is making them for us....

i was just reviewing my video from HIN in market hall dallas, wherein i judged, and i remembered this b15 with a supercharger and carbon fiber hood which was also on the cover of import tuner a while back, the setup looks like it would work on b14 ga 16's anybody else have any info, kinda lost focus cause of all the models, he heh heh..........
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.
