Hi all. I have always found it easy to find shops that does BOT, but very rarely I read about SC brag. So, am just wondering if anyone does supercharger on their ride, and what was the experience. Would appreciate the shops, so I can check them out too. Am researching into cold side SC and the cost.

Well.. Its malaysia.. Ppl ask about horsepower only. No one really understand also. Supercharge will give u more low to mid power @ more instant. Where else turbo give u mid to high end.. And of cpz horsepower figure much more impressive for turbo.

When u meet fellow malaysian.. The firsting they ask
. Horsepower how much?

In terms of technical, i believe supercharged is harder to customise as u need the space for the supercharger to sit as well as custom belt and pulley to pull it. For turbO juz custom exhaust header can fit d

You can try to stick a garrett gt45 into a 1300cc and see it fail to spool up. Stick a super big supercharger into the wrong engine. Scared it won't even crank.

And there is less reasons to do a v-mounted heat exchanger with supercharger. Why supercharger?

I'm already considering to get one for the 86. A fellow owner just got it installed and just waiting for tuning now to test the results. Sprintex supercharger is an aussie brand but actually made in Malaysia. I believe for the Satria Neo they already have one design ready.

Im one of the owner using sprintex supercharger for the neo. The price have gone down now compared before and u can get it installed with rm7k.

For me, the power jump is very significant and very worth it since fc also not differs very much during normal driving.

Supercharger have more moving component. Reason why superchargers are reliable is it doesn't soak heat from exhaust gas and it comes with its own lub reservoir. Downside is it's hard to cool the air after compression.

simpler..but 'eat' more space in engine bay..need proper alignment for the belting. low demand? might be..bcause lack of oem spec car with supercharger (unlike yrv turbo..starlet turbo, evos or subarus).
yep i'm also interested with supercharger compared to turbo.

reliable bcause the heat build up unlike turbo (from exhaust)..but turbo gain power from wastage..while supercharged gain power from belt pulley. even merc already use turbo, no more kompressor. tongue.gif
