Hi,
Just would like some info on how hard would it be to put a supercharger onto an 18rc. Or would a turbo be better, which one would be easier.

Both would be equally difficult and pointless. If you want a turbo/supercharged 2 litre engine you're much better off doing an engine conversion (eg 1G-GTE). It will be easier, cheaper, make better power, and actually hold together in the long term. Don't waste your money on an 18R-C.

agreed
1G will be cheaper, faster, lighter, easier, more fuel efficient, have more potential, and be more reliable.

Yes, a 1G-GZE would also be good... if you don't mind being slower than all the 1G-GTE's.

1GGZE's are usually a tad more expensive as they are less common and less demand.
