My buddy has an LS teg. He wants to supercharge it, i keep trying to talk him out of it. Hes set on one.
He wants to know, will a B18C supercharger work on a B18b?

You just dont get nearly as much bang for your buck with a supercharger than you do a turbo.

agreed to both no it wont work and no its not worth the money, you are better off getting a 75 shot of nitrous than a supercharger imho

the only upside would be that you get more reliable power with the sc than with turbos. you just don't get the high numbers turbos make.

If he wants a super let him get one this turbo vs super crap needs to stop IMO, I see the crap turbo is better dur dur dur, It all depends on what you want to do with the car.

Yeah sure, lets see how much do you spend on the sulfer filled giggle juice over time compared to the alwase there power?

I think some should actually do reserch instead of the bandwagon jump.

you sir are a jackass nicely put. I've been working on imports and building motors since 1996. you however got into the scene after the fast and the furious came out. I don't feel that superchargers for honda are worth the money at all. since he cannot use the charger he is talking about and is prolly on a limited budget I suggested nitrous. What bandwagon are you talking about ?? spending 2300 dollars for 30-45 h.p. ????? your right I'm def not on that bandwagon but it sounds like you are a proud supporter!.! He obviously just wants a quick street car and doesn't plan on auto crossing it, so what is wrong with me suggesting he run nitrous?? I've done more hands on research then you have done over the internet in the last 5 years. I kno what im talknig about but thanks for your blind insight

I actually prefer boost but i've built motors for both and ran boost and nitrous on stock motors too... and I have never wasted money on a poopercharger in my life and don't plan on it or advising anyone too! the only time I would use one were if I were auto crossing but even then i would have had to gotten a steal of a deal to run one.

what about centrifugal?
The thing i dislike about superchargers is 2 things mainly
A. It takes power to make power
B. Not cost effective

for the price of a vortech kit with a cooler I could turbo 2 cars and both would put down more h.p.

but like i said if i were a auto cross guy and found a good deal on one sure i'd run one.. but I don't autocross.

I've worked on supercharged cars and have driven them and they are fun don't get me wrong I just would never spend 1000+ dollars for a used sc kit that will net 40 h.p. ?? why not just run nitrous or build a custom turbo kit.. there is no arguement of what will net you more h.p. for less money .. turbo > sc

I think some should actually do research instead of the bandwagon jump.

I've done more hands on research then you have done over the Internet in the last 5 years. I know what I'm talking about but thanks for your blind insight


What if I am a jackass, ask me if I care....

What do you know of my car history? what do you know of how long I've been messing with cars.

So you have been messing with motors since 96, oh wow...want a cookie?

This is what pisses me off about the Honda crowd, if the guy want to do something let him do it dont push what you think on to someone it just pushes people away. If he wants to do something help him with his ventures. Be more of a community instead of everyone doing the same damn thing.

And what the fuck does F&F have to do with anything? it was a stupid movie end of story.

He said he wanted a quick street car, never said anything about autox now did I? Extra HP that is always there and torque that many wish they had. The bandwagon I am referring to is turbo this turbo that. If he wants a supercharger let him to it dont push your blind insight on to someone it just shows that you know nothing.

So you have done more hands on research than I have in 5 years on the Internet....just means you got more time on your hands wasting money instead of reading and finding actual info.

Also your attitude suggests that you are just someone trying to prove something that you do not have.

You want something to prove, actually help someone instead of saying do this cause, this is lame...

[quote="Sidneyious] And what the ---- does F&F have to do with anything? it was a stupid movie end of story[/quote]

haha I love that movie! And even though people say they hate it, deep down they love it.

He wasn't forcing him to go nitrous. I for a long time wanted a super on my integra but in the end the cost/benefit was just to much of a difference. Nitrous will give you a quick bang for your buck. You still have to tune for nitrous though so it is not amazingly cheap but the cost of a super charger is not something you want to do on a tight budget. I feel like I'm on the Jerry Springer show. In the end, the person with the car and the money makes the decision on what he/she puts on their car. They can take everyone's info however they want.
