Car 99 gsr

All i see on honda tech is how turbo is the best.... well Wat about supercharging, looking for some advice on which f.i. setup i should go for. I noticed that most superchargers are carb legal , while gredy is the only company i can find that makes a carb legal turbo kit, which i hear isnt to great ... What do u think/ recommend?

 

id say go with the supercharger. imo integras need the low end power

Yeah if you can put it down to the wheels.

 

TURBO

 

Turbo!Turbo!Turbo!Turbo!Turbo!Turbo!Turbo!Turbo!Tu rbo!Turbo!Turbo!Turbo!

 

As nice as superchargers are, you still have to worry about engine temps. And then there is a problem with turning up the boost. You might be able to reach 10-12 psi but after that to my knowledge your maxed out.

Atleast with a turbo you have better intercooler options and have less limitations on max power. Also, you could get a smaller dual ball bearing turbo to help on the low end like a GT28R.

turbo FTW, simple fact supercharge's just don't go well with out cars, turbo's are the way to go, room to expand, and more reliable.. i have had my car under boost for over a year and a half and the car runs great!

 

ok turbo guys is it carb legal?

There are carb legal kits if you are worried. Greddy and Edelbrock are a few.

you can find a used supercharger for less than a turbo kit, but it's not going to give you as much power.

 

well doesnt a supercharger rob power from the engine inorder to run it b4 it gets u gains? turbo uses ur exhaust waste to generate power. i dont think a supercharger is a good idea for a 4 cylinder car, not enough power to make it reasonable for the gains, turbo is my choice

 

yeah, superchargers use engine power to run. that's why they make less power than a similar psi turbo setup. you can still make decent power with a supercharger on a 4 cylinder, just not as much as a turbo. it just depends on how much you wana pay.
