...dunno, the one I ran across a while back claimed 5 bhp, and someone
responded that the amperage it drew offset the bhp gain...

I wouldn't trust anything that costs that cheap for such an upgrade. There
is a company called TurboDyne (www.turbodyne.com) that has an electric
supercharger that costs around 1400. Their website also looks professional
and not sales like. They even post finacial reports etc there. The super
charger here had the original use of "helping" the lag of a turbo and the
kit seems to come with more stuff. Visit the site, they can explain more
than I. I would be more enclinded to trust them and anyone else.

Side note, their Electric super charger looks like it has similar
characteristics as the Vortech Supercharger that is Cog driven for larger
mortors. (www.vortecheng.com)

If you want more power get a standard. If you have a standard get a car
with a bigger motor and more cyls.

This is no replacement for displacement!

Good luck!

I dunno marc, never seen one in real life conditions so I dont know how they
hold up, etc.
it doesn't seem like a lot of h.p. though does it?
why dont you just let me slap a little 50 shot of the laughing gas in your
s.c.?! <grin>
by the way, thanks for coming down yesterday, that was the coolest ram air
set up ive seen someone do on a Saturn, reminded me of the second generation
rx7's with the ram air on top of the intercooler! later, Joe
