Oh of course, everything can always be improved! I was just talking on behalf of the majority of people doing work to their car - although if you are buying a built bottom end, maybe you aren't " most " brz/frs owners.

What advantages can be had by utilizing ferrea products for these heads?

Yes we will be beefing up the head as well.

I cant wait for the day I can run 20-25 psi in my FRS. My Tc on 15psi is a beast I can't even imagine what a FA20 can do.

Supercharger would be rough with alot of power.. just because the car is so light and going from 1-3 or even 4th gear the tires will be slipping all the time.. turbo would be a better option boosting up with a built motor due to turbo kicking in at a later time.

Boost by gear is pretty handy actually. A friend of mine has that on his full race turboed 8th gen si.

You can apply boost per gear as well. Don't give her full boost till 3rd or so.

Have you ever driven a 2.0l supercharged car? The power comes on pretty much in a linear fashion because the boost generated is rpm dependent being its design so traction would be better than a turbo for this car. Peak torque and hp would be at the same rpm as NA basically but just bigger numbers. A turbo setup will give you more torque and at MUCH lower rpm.

Depends on what type of supercharger you are talking about. Twin screw comes on harder and faster than a turbo, centri comes on linear.

I had twinscrew aka "roots" blower on my si and the power came on linear and full boost did not happen until near redline because the blower is drive via a BELT from the motor

[Tansey86]

You just described a centri blower - and although roots and twin screw use similar designs they are not synonymous.

Always good stuff...
