isnt that the same thing as the nissan march superturbo hahaha

 

[arrowhead]

after reading/watching, i want the prodrive p2!

ITS A SQUIRREL MINCER!

Nice article. However, some corrections needed for supercharger part. Only roots and twin-screw chargers will give you low end torque w/o any lag. If you are using a centrifugal supercharger, you will still get the lag like turbo.

if i don boost often a turbo car.. would it cost the same as an NA to maintenance? mind tell me what the differences in maintenance between a turbo and NA?

 

[innsand]

to izso, i want to ask u, any car with any engine can be mod like u wrote those articles? what i mean is, can svt engine be installed with supercharged or turbo?? besides, can i do all the step u put in other articles to silvertop engine?? in case, i had this one engine and really want to follow up your advices regarding modification of car so i can feel the fun of mod itself. if not i need to buy another stock car la. sorry for nooby question.

the maintenance is all same like normal NA car, but more frequent (4-5k) service interval for engine oil n filter. that's all..

for silvertop 4A-GE AE101.. better get a supercharge 4A-GZE AE101.. then custom a turbo charge on it.. it's much cheaper..

that's what i plan to do

i think another parts that needs to be replaced will be oil seal... but then a gain.. my friend say that turbo cars must push it sometimes to avoid problems on the turbo... (not sure is true)

good information regarding turbocharged and supercharged..:D

Sorry forget to add on this if both NA and Turbo have same horsepower and CC. No doubt the NA sure tapau Turbo GAO GAO....and there is yr money go to.

nope...
thats only when turbo lagg came in mind..(actually it's not lagg, but turbo threshold)

same displacement, same power, same gearing, turbo ideally will win..
build the same engine as NA, but use boost for low and mid range..limit on high for same power level..
this used in power limitation racing (WRC, GT Racing) where there are power limit, example 300hp..
its engine have 300hp but they boost mid range torque like crazy...it can be said, ideally, 2000cc NA can put out 300hp at 8000rpm..
2000cc Turbo engine can have 300hp...from 3000 till 8000rpm...thats engine technology!

This is awesome!!! Two thumbs up!

I thought GT cars is limit by intake not by the engine.
