why do you guy's like a turbo vs a centrif Supcharger?

turbos are adjustable on the fly with a little knob from 1psi to 30+ psi. an efficeint turbo system has a pressure ratio of 1:1 (intake to exhuast) . a large exhuast negates backpressure on a turbo.

i have one customer that runs a holset on a 2.2 daily driven 4dr shadow with a 4" exhuast to 3" midway minimal lag begs for traction and is a complete hoot to drive. picked up the turbo with low miles. even if you did not want a used one they can be had for 300. and buy a rebuild kit for 100 now it is new for 400 it take all of an hour and half to refurb and they will handle in excess of 40psi.

a decent t3/t4 with good wheels and housings brand new will run you about 950.00

universal cheap ebay pipe kit from cx racing 88.00 with a i/c like 188.00 (unless you get the dual in single out cooler) comes with enough to plumb most cars with a single turbo


dual bb turbos are not a necessity they are more efficient and spool quicker and much more expensive

i like turbos . each has their own merits
