All these kits are already doing one "good" thing which is adding power so by pointing out the "bad" stuff you can be more helpful.

I will point out EVERY single bad thing about any kit, so you sit down and enjoy.

Having already SC my other car with a Rotrex , i wouldnt consider anything else.

N/A feeling / drive / predicatability / no runaway boost issue / no heat issues / no oil plumbing to the engine

and the best thing its like a N/A on steroids

superstani · 12-03-2012, 04:43 PM

so does anyone actually have a turbo or a supercharger on their car yet?

Braces · 12-03-2012, 04:58 PM

Hopefully on topic. The summers where I live can be 120 degree F. I use the car as a DD. Concerning heat issues ...... turbo (AVO) or supercharger?

That is a different thread called supercharger or turbocharger. This thread is for people who already made their choice to share why

Figure out a design yet? i'm working on an idea when its drawn out i'd like to get you opinion on it.

Celica00 · 12-03-2012, 07:48 PM

alot of people are getting AVO for the main reason being reliability.. maybe this has already been covered in the thread but no one actually HAS the kit yet so how could we know that they are the most reliable option? im still on the fence for my FI needs so i'd like to know the reason. this just seems like predicting the future.

Because they have provided the most data via their testing and R&D. They have been monitoring every aspect of this car on extensive 1k+ mile roadtrips and in every climate/altitude you can think of. They also have been doing this for 40 years. As far as reliability is concerned it doesn't seem like much of a contest. We will see though.

it'd be a death sentence if they claimed reliability and had people reporting blown parts so they'd probably not make such claims if they werent validated in some way so thats a good sign. the 40 years in the biz though seems like the clincher. you dont spend half a century doing something wrong haha (except dating) thanks man
