yes blowers are dumb for our cars. Theres really no reason if you want boost to go supercharger. Depending on what you expect to get power wise, 5sfte turbo is good for around 200hp unless your manny heh biggrin.gif. Im still amazed to see what kind of power that guy puts out of his 5s motor. Getting back to the blower, After going through a 5sfte turbo setup in my 5th gen and now having a 3sgte in my 6th gen ... 3s is the way to go. Theres so much potential with that motor. Looking at what most of the mr2 guys do with 3s motors its unreal to see the kind of power they put out. You put that blower on there maybe do a little bit of bolt ons and your done. Theres really not too much aftermarket support for our cars with blowers. I know rip made a kid for a camry which should work with a 5s motor. Other than that I dont really see you getting far with a blower. Supercharger migh just be a little more reliable than a turbo but turbo always puts out more power and theres alot more tuning with a turbo. Just over all how it works, with the crank oposed to exhaust gas. Blowers are good for big domestic v8s but little 4 bangers...... not a good idea.
