Just a curious thought, not actually going to do it....but...


Would a super charger be more advantageous in a 2.4 surf? since the crap weight/power thing?

[Gamedawn]

I've always understood that the advantage of a supercharger is that it gives a power boost at lower revs since it doesn't rely on the speed of the exhaust gasses to get it going. Since a lack of low down torque isn't normally a problem with diesels I think the answer is no. It would probably make a 2.4 undriveable 'cos of the amount of power it takes to run the supercharger

I would probably say you would pull the poor thing to bits. But the advantage would be to then fit a v8.

so theoretically yes would be the answer then cause when supercharger blows your engine you have to drop Vince a mail and make an apointment for your lexurf transformation

Take no notice of Tony, he's our resident hippy, preacher. He just wants everyone to love each other.
