Madfast is mis-informed at best.
In SOME applications (none of those being Import 4bangers), the "type" of S/C'er can match a proper sized turbo application. But I have yet to see one outperform a properly sized turbo on that same application. When have you ever seen a S/C'ed Honda run into the 9's in the 1/4mile. And there aren't any Time Attack records being set or broken by a S/C'ed anything. Matter of fact, what motorsport period is a S/C'ed anything being the preferred application?
The real world does not support your position on having a S/C'er, especially on an import.
