Superchager/turbo question...
I have a 2000 Tiburon, w/ Cold Air Intake, A whole bunch of lights all over and under the car, question is would my "Toby" still be able to pull a supercharger (such as http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...&category=33741), would it overload the engine? would my alternator be able to handle it?

Re: Superchager too much for the engine?
OK, first if you're talking about an actual electric supercharger(Spiralmax/Tornado) off of ebay( I can't get on to ebay because I'm at work and they have it blocked)
READ THIS-Link to another thread about electric superchargers
If you're talking about an actual supercharger, I would say go to www.speed-factor.com and buy a Turbocharger from Tim.
My $.02

Re: Superchager too much for the engine?
I dont see why it wouldnt, You dont have to worry about internals, but if it is electric then u might have to worry about the battary, but i doubt it.
I always wanted to hook up a second battary in the spare tire space, strictly for all the lighting i want to do...

That crap doesn't work, at least not with the efficiency of alternators nowadays. Maybe in a few years down the line when alternators get near perfect efficiency. Don't use Ebay for performance parts, 85% of the time its fake or crap.
