Last Month the Japanese try to retrive this mod a little bit more. They played in the at 2pm CET. At the moment the gametracker,com Server Monitorring is off. Hope soon they turn it on. The ranking seems to work.

I'm sorry guys I was really tired when I made this thread and the description had the word turbo in it, but now that I look closer it is a supercharger. It seems to be a good quality one too that has good feedback. So should I buy the supercharger?
I'd like your opinions anyway but unless I get some solid proof that I shouldn't, i'll buy it anyway :p

OK I figured I'd get some good advice from M-XER I'll pass on this for now and start with the smaller things. Thanks for the advice
Do you think I should get a new catalytic convertor/muffler? What else should I start with? <span class='smallblacktext'>[ Edited 18 Jan : 21:59 ]</span>

If i where to buy one it would be a supercharger not aturbo because the super charger is instant as where a torbo has to build up its boost. your also looking at a lot of work becasue in most cases you have to drop the compression so the turbo/supercharger dosnt blow tha head gasket or slam blast the head loose. Also did you buy a reg up grad chip for your comp or did you get the whole system that allows you to tune your air/fuel ratios. you will also need to set it up so that the timing retards itself (should come with the kit for turbo/super charger) this is the bigest problem of all....i garentee in 60,000- 80,000 miles the seals will be worthless in the turbo/supercharger and gas/power/oil will be lost horably. getting the turbo/super charger rebuilt will have to be done...probly cost half the price of a new turbo/supercharger by itself. Ok for the starter stuff always go with exaust first. if your addin hp like m-xer said its got to breath good. New exaust/headers. Your also gonna want a hoter spark. MSD igniton has everything ya need for that. 6AL box $200 if your going turbo your gonna need a new box thats rated for turbo witch they also sell. new Plugs/high output wires/coil (your car has coilpacks intead of a distibuter so im a lil unsue on the set up for it) you also gonna want the computer system i was refering 2. makes it so you can hook your lap top right in to the cpu and ajust air/fuel ratio and to advance or retard your timing. ok once you have the car opened up to breath good/a nice hot spark then ;you work on air intake and dumping more fuel in since your car can now let the added exaust out/has enuf spark to have a clen burn with the added fuel.(if its not tuned right and you have more fuel then you can cleanly burn it will cause a nasty carbon build up) see with msd ignition (multiple spark somthing eles that starts with d lol) below 3000 rpms the spark plug fires more than once in a single cumbution. then after that when the rpms are to high for that it blasts just once every time. you already have the cool air intake so next i would get a new intake manifold/larger fuel rails/injectors/fuel pump/fuel pressir regulator. ect...thier is also a thing you can buy to put in line with the cool air intake to make the air less tubolnt casing it to move fast into the engine. blah ok i think thats enuf for now btw remember when you add all this hp to you r car your gonna destroy your drivetrain with it probly so that will also have to be upgraded. so you best be is to not do any of this to any car you plan on driving daily!!!

A whole Exhaust (What you should get). Consists of Tubing maybe headers and or an insert to hook up with ur stock heads an Catalytic Converter, Exhaust/Muffler considering most towns its illegal to have no (Catalytic Converter) and there is a FINE involved. So its up to you to have one or not... I personally don't because im in the country away from towns... Catalytic Converters decrease sound/performance but not to the extent of poor performance.... As Immortal is saying WEAR AND TEAR WILL OCCUR... Um i run (Synthetic Oil) And STP Oil treatment to keep my seals/gaskets in good condition... I also if your a gear head and know how to take an engine apart to use Mr.Gasket Ultra-Seal head gasket sealent... Or you could just put it around the gaskets in your engine.... Helps keep those gaskets in good condition...

also with the cat converter you need to watch your back presser because the engine does need some and by gutting or taking it completly out will free things up alot...if you have a back presser problem fromm taking it off i would buy a baffled exust pipe (it alaws you to bolt plate on the end of it with holes to cause the needed back pressier. somtimes the right muffler can fix the problem...or if your a real redneck just go out thier and crunch your exaust pipe a lil lmao
I think you mean backfiring... Yes that is a sign that cops go by to catch you without a (Catalytic Converter). Im also thinking adding this HP will put some stress on the drivetrain.. But i mean i woulden't worry about it to much... If you had a truck and added A liftkit/Tires uh yes you would have to change the transmission and the shaft... Don't worry about it although i would stay away completely from the SuperCharger and the Turbo.... You can smoke somebody with just simple mods... Tweaking with the Gear ratios is also a big improvement! Um, if you don't want to buy spark plugs just take them out and soak them in 89 Octane Gas over night and there refreshed... I would tell you to run a higher octane gas but then again i don't know if your engine could handle it.... But its good to run octane boost in there once every 2 months to help your valves.... It also maybe time for a valve adjustment... Its not hard to do with a torque wrench and the numbers , but if your not experianced enough just let a mechanic do it . <span class='smallblacktext'>[ Edited 18 Jan : 23:00 ]</span>
