Superchargers for 2.8's
#32
Well the G1 takes up most of the space that used to be occupied by the stock airbox, so you're gonna need some kind of intake set up, but that should be the least of your problems at this point. You're gonna need someone to write you a tune

Ya the intake shouldn't be to bad. Would a garage be able to write me a tune or would I have to go to a special garage and get that done? If so any one know a garage around northwestern PA or how to search for one?

i would do the s/c in a heartbeat if i had a 2.8.... even at 1500 that is crazy cheap compared to even an elim kit for the 1.8(3500-5000)..... as for tune...that will be the hard part... depending on where you live you could go to performance shop and get dyno tuned or if you have skills street tune like the dsm guys did back in the day.... go stand alone
or you could put anywhere from a 50-100 shot of nitrous on there
or you could put anywhere from a 50-100 shot of nitrous on there

I 100% agree with you on that one, but my point was given the power increase you're getting in either case, would you pay full price for an elim kit that's seen who how many thousands of miles on two or three different cars already?

well....how much was/is a pes new?
if they are like the ones for the newer cars 10k then 1500 is fairly reasonable, but if they were only 3k then no
now on that note.... i know that the s/c are really easy to rebuild and most average diy'ers can do it themselves......(with my limited knowledge) whereas alot of the turbos aren't or most people wouldn't try that themselves.....
and honestly if i had bought a 2.8 and joined the forums and found out i was fucked the only way to get power was a s/c or juice then yes i would..........
