oh yes LOVE forced induction *happy*
my last suck through supercharged 1380 ran 150bhp.
hope this one runs around 170 odd.
then next year ill think about selling the blow through kit and going turbo so i can really wind that boooost up *happy*


lovely car mate; kinda jealous.

question though if your going turbo next year why spend all the money on the sc set up and those exhausts and not just go turbo now with that engine spec you could easily have an impressive car on your hands. not that it wont be with 170 :)

I've not gone turbo straight away because i wanted it to stand out and be different when i open the bonnet.
my plan is to sell the charger kit next year to fund the turbo parts i will need.
Im also getting the charger kit extremely cheap as Slark are using my car to make a mock up again.
there setting the car up for free too!
