Yeah, I was thinking about mounting a Rippmod Supercharger on my ST by modifying the brackets and mounting holes. But then there goes the timing belt question. LoL.
I'm still thinking about going turbo because I "heard" you get more boost and power out of turbo. But as stated by nik stated, most people run turbos 8-9psi which is recommended for high mileaged cars. 11psi with a fresh new motor.
The only thing about turbo is that it doesn't start kicking it until it recieves enough air compression where as the supercharger uses the pulley and is powered throughout the overall rpm range. That is better for a 7A because of the low-end torque. And also, I quote this from Ripp Mod, "The RIPP SDS stage 1 kit will work with either automatic or manual transmissions and at 9psi will yield up to 227.3HP . This is up a full 112.3HP from the 115 (factory stock) without any other modification."
It's all stragety!
