Turbo or supercharger

[Peej1981]

Well i will try and update my build thread soon and get a vid on there, but this is what a very nice supercharger sounds like (obviously not running standard but that noise, cant help but smile all day long  )

Thats because it has been heavy modded, they dont all sound quiet as loud, but just wanted to get the idea across as to what a supercharger sounds like.
I dont think i would ever dislike the noise as even just watching the vid puts a smile on my face. 

Think the other thing you need to look into now Adam is how much it is going to cost roughly to achive this???

Superchargers are from the start, run out of puff top end, turbo's usually kick in around 2.5/3K on petrol cars.

They are kinda irritating if you put your foot down then suddently they come alive but saying that, once you get the hang of keeping it in the power band, I reckon turbo's are better.

They are more economic on the motorway off boost. But they DRINK fuel.

VR6's are midrange power aren't they?

I'd supercharge it myself but I'd ALWAYS be wondering what the turbo would have been like.

BOTH 

Yeah i know it would require and complicated management system. But you would be putting down some serious power.

Peak torque on a vr6 is actually over 4000rpm.

Hmm.

So I guess a turbo could increase that from around that point whereas a supercharger could benefit mostly under and until that?

On a vrt the power is basically everywhere.. regardless of what a graph tells you and where its peak is, its fecking too much anyway!

Supercharger ftw.

No lag and the whine is awesome.
