Default Wish there were more supercharger options available for us beta owners

I have always loved a properly supercharged engine over a turbo. This goes back to my dad having supercharged muscle cars while growing up. Something about it just makes me tingle inside when I hear a S/C whine, versus a turbo spool or BOV. I know the V6 GK guys have a few S/C's available to them, but there really isnt anything out there for Beta 1 owners. sad.gif Makes me sad because I would give my left nut for a really good screaming S/C kit. bowdown.gif

^Exactly....stay far far away from Alpine S/C's. You would get more power from an intake and exhaust! laughing3.gif

If your creative you can make one out of a Beta 1 intake manifold. Shouldn't be too hard to cut off the top and fabricate an adapter plate for a MP62.

Don't even bother with sc at all
I was gonna rock a Mercedes sc and had a lot of time in it
Then I found out and calculated it out, in order to get about 10 psi I was gonna end up at about 2 grand and still not have a way to cool the charge

You should be able to make this work pretty easily.

Also the NGM kit DOES NOT work for Beta 1 Tiburons, so don't even think of dropping hard cash for it.

$4G's for a 40-50% power gain? Yes, please. I wish I could get a 40% power gain for my Mustang for $4K
