Would it be more practical to pull the turbo of a 3tg and then supercharge that? That way you would have all the injection hardware.
|
why would you even think of doing this?
the only good thing about superchargers is the lack of lag, youd be sacrificing power, for the sake of lag, which, in itself can be reduced significantly by using a smaller turbo, for example the t25 off an s13 silvia.
you must remember, that superchargers, while compressing air, and giving a better power output, also rob the engine of power in order to turn the compressor.
the end result of supercharging a former turbo engine may be that you end up with a power figure lower than that of an NA engine.
to cut a long story short.
you have an engine, you remove the turbo, and add a supercharger, this reduces the power output, because of two reasons, the supercharger cannot produce the same amount of PSI as a turbo, and the supercharger is using the engines power to turn the compressor to make more power.
whereas, if you leave the turbo on there, and upgrade, the management, injectors, turbo and add an I/C, youll receive a shitload more ponies, but at the cost of turbo lag, albeit minimal, depending on the type/size of turbo used.
to summarise FURTHER: turbo = good, supercharger = bad
hope this helps.
