Just being in the FI section would tell u the best way to go. But im sure he did his research and hes' just testing the knowledge of the guys here.

 

I would suggest you buy a turbonator. It's way cheaper than a SC or Turbo and can boost up to 22psi while still having 28mpg.

 

I did type in and did alot of research but people tell me that superchargers are better for the money but when you talk about turbos you can get more boost but if you dont know what you are doing then you can blow up your motor i didnt find any comp and contrast threads so this is why one was made PWNT

 

 

y r u worrying about boost? us hould be worrying bout is how much HP ur gonna make not how much boost. the more the boost on a car the engine will blow. ur worrying bout the wrong thing. SC people are running 9/11/12psi pullies. stock is 7. people that are running Turbos at 8psi are pushing about 290 ish u will never get that much with a 9lb pully for a SC

 

hahaha I accidently wrote inside of that quote... well you guys will see it.

 

Yeah i understand that then how much can stock internals handle on boost.

 

^ about 300whp-350whp...i would suggest if going over 300...get some internal work done!

 

 

Okay here it is. 300WHP out of a S/C requires atleast a 12lb pulley, full exhaust, meth inj, and an insanely aggressive tune.
300WHP out of a turbo requires a basic kit, full exhaust, no meth, 10-11PSI, and a conservative tune.

I managed to make more power than that S/C did (I think he was on a DynoJet which reads 10-15% higher than a DD), out of the same amount of boost, on a conservative street tune, with less stuff (no pulleys, no meth, no pro-tune, no clutch, no flywheel).

The only thing good about the TRD S/C, is the warranty. If you're going to swap the pulley for some more power, then the turbo should have been your original choice.

 

ORLY?

Then I guess you need to learn "HOW" to search.

There fixed that part for you.

 

lol he was cammed too? That's sad.

 

yeah thats alil too much to try and make a SC even come close to a turbokit. to much of a hassle when u could gotten a turbo to begin with.


stock internals can handle about 300-330ish? and stock clutch if that. i could be wrong though

 

Again, that was with the rather poorly designed TRD vortex supercharger. If a properly designed Eaton TVS R1050 or R1320 setup were kitted, you would probably see it make a run for the turbo. The R1320 is oversized for the tC but runs 72% efficiency @ 13k shaft RPM and puts out 1.9 bar (that's 27 psi).

Oh how I wish I had a tC and a TIG welder to play with.

 

I have a superturbocharger

 

^ dont sleep lol twin charge(SC and turbo) has been done on the tc. yes it was completely pointless though

 

^^Naw its was pretty pimp..too bad they never pushed it beyond what it could actually do.

 

Domo laughs, but I was seriously considering doing one. Only problem is I couldn't figure out how to get the charge temp feeding the s/c cool enough, running meth through an Eaton is a no-no because the alcohol gets into the sealed bearings and displaces the oil.




Ended up scrapping the concept, now it's going All Turbo!

 

oh yeahhh i forgot i was watching ur thread awhile bak about a twincharge on ur XB. on the tc it was done but it wasnt really pushing much
