Hi, welcome to the forum

1) This post belongs in the FI subforum http://www.ft86club.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=78
2) Read the FI subforum and decide what fits your goals best. Each SC has a thread basically. Read every post in every thread to find the pros/cons of each and then ask specific questions based on what you learned and what you are trying to achieve

Thanks!

For turbos there's a wide range of options that require some research as to who's the best by reading the FI section.

For superchargers, you have great twin screw options like:

Harrop, Edelbrock, and the Innovate/ sprintex (all in an "affordable price" range)

For centrifugal superchargers that sort of match the turbo power band:

The best on the market is the Jackson Racing Supercharger kit with an oil cooler

Welcome, KennethTheJet ......

Oh, I'd suggest you just open up the intake and exhaust and get a tune.

Your car's engine will last longer and be more dependable......

See how much money and aggravation I saved you........

Just because he said so. Someone always says so.

I like the HKS system. Pretty reliable and has one added feature none of the Rotrex centrifugal units offer. One of the 3 internal rollers has a variable geometry that allows the unit to draw the very least amount of parisitic power when spinning at low RPM so the vehicle still gets great mileage in a typical city or commuter operating cycle. The quality looks good too. Priced really well in the market and pretty much the only Japanese quality unit.

The traction fluid is 3x the cost, but its good for up to 5 years replacement interval so no big deal.
I have a Frankenstein V1 kit that produces 276 WHP on standard fuelling system on a custom tune peaking at 10 PSI. Only big difference is I have a Supra size intercooler.
