holy shnat... what is ur setup? thats crazy yea i just hope turbo on this car is reliable dude. that compression scares me. but i was also thinking about doing the head gasket mod.
however on a side note is there any power potential with the supercharger? after the initial 100 or so.???

5-6 grand will not get you a turbo kit. At least not one you'd want to romp around in.
