-well i don't wanna make fun of your engine (cause i have the same one), but 7afe is like one of the worst Toyota engines that they put on the market... -first of all before you do any kind of BOOST (turbo, supercharger, nos), I would have some import shop rebuilt the engine, just changing the internals it shouldn't go more then $800...and it will feel brand spankin new engine.... -the best option after you get the engine rebuilt is NOS, ...WHY>???....you might ask... well its "cheap" (best hp per $ ----- 50 horsepower for about $500) and its not always ON like turbo/supercharger, you only use it when you need it ( so if some honda "got rice" moron is talking ****, then you turn it on....and magic....spank his ass....) -second option would be a turbo w/intercooler and custome piping (cost you around $2,500), but then you are always gonna add some parts cause you are never gonna get the right pressure/boost levels bla bla bla so then you are gonna be adding $1,000 in small **** like better wastegate, blow-off valve, turbo timer and stupid **** that doesn't add hp) -and third option is no option at all - "custom SUPERCHARGER" , no way superchargers are belt driven so unless the engineer that made the 7afe is doing it - i would stay away from it - DON't even think about custom one without $5,000....stay away from supercharger ok enough talking for tonight,,,,, GOT BOOST? |
