Default Prelude JR Supercharger question...

OK, heres the deal. My buddy has a 98' SH. He wants to finally spend some cash on the performance side of things. We live in Utah, very high altitude. I would like to know your opinions on whether or not the JR Supercharger kit is good for the Ludes', or if running a strong all-motor config. would work. I personally like the JUN or Skunk2 valvetrain components, but he wants an opinion from you guys.

Thanks!

Most people here will tell you 'go turbo', but it really comes down to what you want, not what they think you want.

If you want decent power with a crazy amount of low end torque, the lude JRSC is a fine kit. With the proper fuel, engine management, and exhaust choices, you can run 9 psi reliably all day with about 200 ftlbs of torque throughout the rpm range.

If you are looking for more than 250 whp, go turbo.
