A supercharger on anything short of a V8, ain't worth it. And I'll even say a supercharger on a V8 ain't worth it. I'll take twin turbo's any day. The only thing cool about a supercharger is if you got the kind that sticks out the hood, Mad Max style.

This is also very true for I4s. It amazes me that people with Zetec's are still buying Jackson Racing Superchargers and now the new Vortech one. The JR is so weak, their even some people talking about making a custom kit with the SVT blower to make more power. They make no TQ vs a turbo at the same psi. The only advantage they have is CARB friendlier installs. But I say screw emissions.
