There are lots of custom turbo places, but anywhere that does custom supers?

i thought superchargers wouldn't fit in our engine bay. that's why JR doesn't have one for us i guess if u have a whole lotta $$$$$$, then anything custom is possible. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

i would think that a SC would fit easier under our hood than a turbo. so i bet you could cram it in there or get someone to do it for ya.

You would think so. With a turbo, you need to run more pipes than in a supercharger because of the wastegate and everything going to and from the exaust system. Maybe we wont see a turbo out either or jackson racing just doesnt want to make a blower for our cars.

Okay because I've been hearing so many things about Jackson Racing and I wanted to double check it, cause their a local company for me [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG], I just got off the phone with them this is what they said. The Engine bay isn't too small to have a supercharger in it, no they are not currently working on one, nor do they plan to start working on for at least a year because they're involved in too many projects right now. He did say they were planning on making one for our cars, just not anytime soon [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG].

Um no, there aren't any. You can go custom for $5k at least.

Not worth it for the output. There's not enough HP in our engines to begin with to be able to steal some to drive the super. You'll kill your engine with it pretty quick.

when you take out the stock air box there is so much fing room in there. even with a turbo and all its piping i can fit my arm all the way to the bottem and im fat.

does it fit? im guessing yes
would it work? i dont know since i dont know much about SC

supercharger has to go on the other side of the engine since it is belt driven, there is not much room to spare there
