when ya supercharge an engine ya get differnt numbers in dif ranges...

tho you are right, w/ a SC ya have alot more potential...

you quoted the wrong post.

but anyway, a built engine will not put out more power than an engine with a blower on it.

That's true. I rode in a supercharged truck and that made me wanna get a blower. Nothing else. That sound is crazy inside.

YOu wanna talk about a crazy sound. A friend of mine has a 03 or 04 (can't remember exactly) F-450 Diesel with a turbo charger on it! Freaking insane, the whistle drowns out the sound of the diesel enging! It's crazy seeing that bigass quad cab dually jump up and haul *** like it does!

Last time I was at steen they had a 2000 GT with the stage 2 heads and cams they were tuning, which put down over 310(I think the exact # was 313 rwhp). I have to admit it sounded so awesome...but the other car they had there(which I got a ride in) was a mercury marauder with a novi 2000 kit, it put down 520 rwhp, and ran a 11.9 in that heavy a$$ car. After riding in that I can't stop thinking about gettin a blower. Like others have said.... ride(or drive if your lucky) in both
