Default WORST s/c setups

Hey everyone- I recently have been deciding on what route to go for forced induction on my EG. I have seen several local peoples setups and have seen what DOES and DOES NOT seem to work well.. i have to say the worst setup ive seen is a Jackson Charged b18b1 in an EJ at 6lbs. (even with the upgraded pulley it was whack). Seems like a good setup but its just too much money to waste for such low ET'z. anways. thats my vote for all time worst setup! how about you?? seen anythign that just doesnt pay off??? i want to hear your experiences so i dont make a mistake i could have avoided. thanks!

jinxproof99, I am not offended. I did not detect any anti-sohc tone in your post.

hey, make do with what you got. I'm waiting for my D16Y8 to blow up (if it ever will, it seems too strong at the moment!) then i'm doing a B18C turbo. Probably gonna have to boost it at 1.5 bar, and hope i blow a hole in the block
