Force fed anyone???
 
I just stumbled upon the mazdatrix supercharger kit and was wondering if anyone in the area had it or wants to get it.
I've seen the big shops developing blower kits but no turbo(except for Greddy).

I'm just curious cause of the #s theyre getting out of the kit...
5k for the greddy kit is just way too much for what you gain. It seems like some juice would be the way to go. then again if the blowers fall somewhere in between, both price and output its a no brainer.

you havent had your 8 or researched much have you?

Your mixing superchargers and turbo's. They both force induce higher pressure combustion air, but a supercharger is constant engine driven (typically belt), whereas a turbo is exhaust gas driven at a set cut-in threshold.

Are you Manny with the FD?

I get the feeling I'm creating a lot of confusion here. SORRY

All I want to know is if there are any of you guys running around with one of these kits...I've seen the Greddy kit on a 8, but thats it. I havent seen anything else.

Perhaps you could find more information in the first sticky in the major horsepower upgrade section.

Maybe...:dunno:

I'm getting my feet wet...just noticed that section. Also no kill section????

then again, a local car to check out in person and maybe go for a few runs would be nice!!!! :lol2:

Westchester NY...

come to think of it, i havent even seen a modded on up here yet.

there is no kill section here and will not be.. search dna procharger.

and it is a bit odd that maztrix cannot get out a dyno of the kit!!

beers :beer:
