Re: Supercharger MOD
well yes and no because you cant go for lots of compression at high rpms like you would with a N/A build. I think you would need a cam and rods if you wanted to supercharge the d14.

Turbo kits use aftermarket cams and rods below 200hp?mynameisowen wrote:well yes and no because you cant go for lots of compression at high rpms like you would with a N/A build. I think you would need a cam and rods if you wanted to supercharge the d14.

Re: Supercharger MOD
well close to 200 i think its wise too, what im saying is i dont think you would make much power with supercharger without cam, and if your keeping the high compression then rods would be good, because normally you lower compression for boosted applications.

Re: Supercharger MOD
I think mini-me on the D14 can still run with SC. As long as you keep pressures low... economic value of the setup I doubt 
, but it will sounds very great probably . Years and years ago, around 2002 I think I was standing next to a VTEC-E with Mercedes SC, sounded fantastics, but the guy did not want to open up the hood... unfortunately I never got track of the guy and/or project again.
I agree on the engine characteristics which stay (roughly) the same with SC. Still I am afraid intake runner length is not as good as default intake manifolds and you'll loose something there?
