Okay so I know what the differences are between a turbo and a supercharger my question is which one is actually better, since a supercharger is belt driven would that be harder on the engine than a turbo, and is it just as easy to up the boost on a supercharger as on a turbo, because I know with a turbo you just mess around with a boost controller, but since superchargers are belt driven do you have to upgrade the pulley that they have, or do you just buy a boost controller just like a turbo. And what exacly is an aftercooler, I've heard somebody say something about these with supercharger. Sorry for all the questions I am just really thinking tonight. I dunno why?
And I also know that they do not make a supercharger for our cars I was just wondering. |

A couple of ppl have mentioned the HP differences between SC and Turbo setups. The important point is that superchargers will perform better on big engines as in V8+, and turbos are much better suited to smaller engines.
That said, the best by far would be a super AND turbo charged engine.. but that is kind of out of the question for the celica ![]() Since you were asking about the celica... Like most everyone else I will say go the 3s-gte! If you are not interested in swaps, get a turbo kit for your engine. |
