There is soooo much misinformation scattered in with true facts that this thread ought to be cleaned up before it gets anyone else confused [and perhaps causes someone to destroy a motor].
Basically everything Cuts said is true and his advice should be followed - the rest forget about it. This site is thick with threads about how one or the other of us Turbocharged our NA motors - it's easy to do if you do alot of homework and buy the right parts. There is no need to only run 6psi on an NA motor - it's all in the tuning.
Dragondog IDK where you get your info from but telling someone they don't have to upgrade their fuel system when they add a turbo or supercharger is a very bad idea. The whole point of either device is to shove more air into the engine so that more fuel can be burned with each cycle of the engine to produce more power. So why would you think it was possible or even desireable to add a charger of some type but leave the fuel system stock? Also there is no difference in fuel consumption between a supercharger and a Turbo charger when they are producing boost - one style will not necessarily require more fuel than the other.
Please guys - if you truly don't know the answers to these questions please leave the speculation out of these threads.
