dont bother with a s/c on a 4 cylinder man

youd spend 4000 bux and have as much hp as a person who spent 400 bux on a wet shot of nitrous

^he's right. gains on that small SC are small, unless you ass larger pulleys and injectors. not a lot of power, or cost of it to be paying 93 and shooting reliability out your ass.

i'd like to see a built up twin charged beta. it would cost a lot, but how sweet would that be?!

I think twin charging, while technologically interesting, is highly overrated. IMO if you're looking for that effect a sequential twin turbo setup is superior. For me I would still stick with a single turbo.

Not worth it! You could spend half the amount (2 grand), and boost the hell out of your car with a nice turbo set up, and get a TON more results than the S/C.
