if he removes the a/c then the SC will be more efficient and for v6 it is cheaper and more reliable. [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

A/C is already out. Although the last few days here in Edmonton have been really hot (record setting high temperatures...) so I'm kinda regretting it...

Do yourself a favor. Put your a/c back in and just go with a turbo.

[img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img] <BR>That's the whole thing Visual. I would be able to just 'go' with a turbo. But with a supercharger, I would be able to 'go' really, really fast. That and it's somewhat unique to have a S/C MX-3

even though it's been done, a supercharged mx is diff, but a turbo has a lot more potential. just my .02

THe SC takes power away from the engine. The turbo uses power from the exhaust that would usually be wasted. I agree that it would be nice to see another supercharged MX-3 but if overall output is what you want, the turbo is the way to go. We can debate this forever but turbo is more efficient than SC (with all variables identical). Buy hey I'm just tryin to help ya out. [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

Hello,<BR>I just purchased my MX-3 GS-E a few weeks ago, has some basic mods, intake, high flow car, and exhaust. I found a NOS> kit for 500$ says 40-60 HP adjustable, and that it is made for a stock engine. I am wanting to know if it would be worth doing it, and if i should get a new clutch (if so, what kind?). I dont feel like frying my clutch... By the way, do they make a product to fill in scratches on rims. I have 18 inch Giovanna Kuji Rims, and the dub s--- before me was like.."hey, lets run into a freaking curb with them!" so i want to get rid of that. And if anyone is interested in body kits, wings, etc. My brother is the owner of <A HREF="http://www.PaAutoRacing.com" TARGET=_blank>www.PaAutoRacing.com</A> , and if you like something that isnt on teh site, just give us a link to it, and we will sell it cheaper than the place. But my biggest concern is, what do i need to do to my car, to keep it in one piece, when i hit that little red button?<BR>Thanks <A HREF="http://www.PaAutoRacing.com" TARGET=_blank>www.PaAutoRacing.com</A>
