16V Supercharger setup!

[sfwilliams@comcast.net (Scott F. Williams)]

Frankly, I think a turbocharger is a better bet for the high-revving 16v
motor. The consensus on the G6016v list is that the setup's greatest value
is sentimental rather than practical. -kinda like my choice of individual
throttlebodies instead of turbos. I simply liked the cool factor more than
the actual benefits.

Go turbo if you want maximum power. Do a supercharger if you think it's
cool. -which it is! As for the compression ratio, how much power are you
looking to make? If all you want is VR6 power, you don't even need boost.
