whats the best supercharger for nba

[Boags]

After reading that; you want an AVO (or equivalent BEGI kit from US) Stage 1 turbo kit.

Bolt on. Drive. Enjoy.

If you don't want to do silly things; your radiator, brakes, diff and internals are going to be just fine as Mazda made them.

Find a nearby club member with a turbo car and take it for a spin; you'll love it.

I've had both, 160RWHP S/C NA8 and a 225RWHP turbo NA6 and I definetly enjoyed the supercharger more but as the everyone has said get a drive in both and you'll make up your mind pretty quick

mmmmmm ......supercharger ...it even sounds good when spoken...and utube proves the whiiiine is fiiiiine.

leaning towards ffs cold side...200 rwhp is definitely enough.and tis said the throttle response is great

but i will definitely ride in both whine and whiz before i spend the $

any one in northern sydney care to take a passenger for a drive??

thanks for the response

I live on the lower north shore of Sydney, and if you're free sometime, I'd be happy to take you for a drive in my SP.
You can e-mail me at george@scala.com.au.

My car may be a bit more powerful than you desire, but you'll see how much torque you get from a turbo.

[mhj]

i do acknowledge the philosophical truth provided by roy and hg that \" too much is never enough\" and it is distinctly possible that you are entirely correct. :.... but....i read that over 200rwhp comes with new and expensive complications....i am not interested in more maintanence, less reliability, and i really hate having to nurse mechanical devices...done it all my driving life in crap cars..... i demand easy divability for the rest of my live long life....so compromise!?!?!?!??....decision pending

enjoy

I'm reinstating the supercharger on my NA8 next month and am happy to take you for a spin.

[Okibi]

If it was me (and I was going to supercharge)

a) Upgrade clutch (If you don't kill the standard clutch within 6 months of getting a supercharger than you probably didn't need more power to begin with).

b) A better radiator (you can get away without it, but I wouldn't risk it)

c) Intercooler (Its a little warmer here in W.A. I wouldn't want to run any forced induction without trying to reduce the intake temperatures.

WOW...second page and nobodies suggested turfing your car and buying an SE yet!

Factory fitted power is more EPA. RTA and insurance friendly!

If you want a ride in a bog stock SE (plenty enough power for this little black duck! ) then shoot me a PM and I'm happy to oblige with a drive. I'm in Crows Nest by the way.

That's because he want's an improvement in power and torque

If mhj only wants to go as fast as an SE I would recommend he gets an NC and also enjoy the improved chassis

Having dríven all the SC cars mentioned by Greenmachine, plus a very fast 1.6l Autorotor installation, I would recommend a turbo as being the easiest to live with in everyday situations. Aside from the M45 and V-Engineering setups, the s/c's have had issues and have probably cost their owners more in the long run then a high end turbo setup. Indeed the Autorotor was replaced with a turbo and now is a very fast, streetable and reliable setup.

I said in the initial post that its too late to get an se 'cause i got the love bug on a pretty silver nba.........same goes for nc....and they(nc) dont look as good as the preceeding generations!!!!!!!!!

The main issue is that an SE needs a lot of money thrown at it to get the torque figures you are describing. No point AT ALL.

Get back in your box Camelboi.

I, thought long and hard about a supercharger, even had the money for one.

A Garrett T28 turbo came up at the right price and I couldn't be happier.

No lag, torque everywhere, sounds like a rotary and ended up costing less than a supercharger.

At the end of the day I am sure you will find whichever you choose more

than enjoyable.
