also i gained hp when i put my stock exhaust on. i didnt loose much back pressure with the stock exhaust. but i did loose my top end with it though.

yeah, Matt had the Greddy grapefruit shooter on his, not only was it obnoxiously loud, but it lost power too.


you arent goin to be able to *reliably* get more then about 250whp out of one without a new build...they are a higher then boost friendly compression....

hey jus to let u know a compresion ratio is 9:1 that is when the supercharger is a peak performance.........and also a supercharger runs off of ur engine and a turbo gives u a boost but somtimes turbo get turbo lag and dont kick in unitl about 20-35 but thats on some turbos.......mostly the cheaper ones and the smaller ones....let me know what u go with
