Just wondering if anyone here has a supercharged 1.6. I am interested to get some feedback on their experiences.
Does it make much difference in power (obvious question), driveability around town, anyone taken it racing? does it struggle always being at higher revs?
I am asking cos all the talk about carb certified kits has made me excited.
I do remember some here saying once that they had a supercharger but would have gone turbo if they had a chance...
\"Opens can\"...let the game begin.

And wants to turbocharge it...

The real difference for me is the cost. You can't really DIY a supercharger kit, so you are paying top dollar for almost everything.
