TVM...are those #'s right for the 86 gn...0-60 in 4.9?
Thats incredible! I knew they were fast but thats really fast. Does the turbo kick in that much more than the supercharger?
Superchargers: Pro's: Power throughout the RMP scale. "No lag" Cons: You have to use some of those added horses to run the supercharger cause it runs off the crank shaft. "Parasitic Power Loss"....
Turbo: Pro's: No "Parasitic Power Loss" Higher boost levels. Cons: Heat. Lag time, most turbos don't spool till around 1700 - 2000 RPM.
Here is a link to a Turbo vs Supercharger overview. ~ L I N K ~
