I know a member on here installed a roots style blower on here, but has anyone thought about installing a Centrifical supercharger like a vortech, misc. on a NA supra, all you really need to do is make a bracket and get a belt. good idea or bad?

If it were me, I'd go centrifugal supercharger because you can utilize your stock intake manifold. With that being said, the only things that need superchargers are boats. Turbos ftw.

I come from a land down under
Not taboo at all I bought one way back when I started building my car but after carefully measuring the available space I'd have to lose my AC to make it all fit so to me it just wasn't worth the effort.

Centrifugal SC's are the worst of both camps and a total WOTM....

the SC's that I have dealt with just have been useless. The only one I was impressed with was the TRD kit for a Scion tC, but it comes with bigger injectors and a new ecu map.

We have been down this road many a time. All it takes is time and money, if you have plenty of both, go nuts. Honestly, the next time I think of supercharging a MKIII, it better have a v8 in it.
