Supercharger kit
brings you dramatic increases in power while not degrading everyday drivability
or highway gas mileage! The system utilizes a large blow off valve that remains
open at cruise and light throttle. This, essentially, allows the supercharger to “freewheel” under
normal conditions, reducing parasitic loss to less than that
of an alternator.
A naturally
aspirated engine would require higher compression, a very aggressive camshaft,
high flow cylinder heads with heavy duty valvetrain, exhaust headers with free
flowing exhaust, larger throttle body, high flow intake manifold, free flowing
air filter housing and duct, etc. Most of these parts are NOT emissions legal.
The price of these components alone is higher than a supercharger system. The
labor to install these is also much higher. Then there are the inherent problems
brought to the vehicle by such a build. A large camshaft all but ruins everyday
drivability AND gas mileage. Driving in traffic becomes a very trying
experience. A stick shift car will buck and surge and an automatic car will be
hard to hold back because of the increased idle speed required. Low speed torque
is reduced with an aggressive camshaft which will require lower differential
gearing and a high speed stall torque converter (automatic cars) to make up for
it. This further degrades drivability and gas mileage. With all the components
required for a high performance naturally aspirated car, the degradation in
drivability and gas mileage, the total inability of the vehicle to pass
emissions tests and the added expenditure, the vehicle would STILL have up to 100HP less
than a stock Corvette with one of our standard
systems bolted on.
Average
increase TO THE REAR WHEELS is approximately
175 RWHP! No other modification, in this price range,
even comes close.
