Default SUPERCHARGED 1/4 Mile Times

Hello. I am new to the Scion xB world. Just bought a 2005 xB RS 2.0.

I am very interested in seeing what quarter-mile times people are getting out of a supercharged xB. I am wanting to add some pep to the worlds smallest school bus(RS 2.0 is Yellow), and from reading through the posts, it sounds like a supercharger is the right choice for me. I just need to know what kind of 1/4 mile gains it will yield.

Thanks in Advance!

my buddy's best time with just the Blitz on his xB was i think a 15.6, my best with the Blitz was a 15.001 ( with darg radials). But i got rid of the supercharger because of it's inconsistance of performance, belt problems, and shearing crank pulley pins. Also my friend with the Greddy Supercharger kit (installed 2 months ago) is getting rid of it and going turbo because of the same problems.

So maybe I should reconsider?

I am really confused now. I just want to be in the 13s-14s without having to change engine components. Is there a 'not-to-complicated' bolt-on way to make this happen? I might be hoping for something that is just not possible. If anyone has input on this, I would really appreciate it. I am assuming that it will involve a turbo at this point. Please Advise?

I don't want to seem like a thread jacker, but blown xa, do you recall how your gas mileage was for you car with the supercharger?

How is now that you are turbo'd?

My box, first and foremost, is a daily driver. I bought it to get away from the 15 mpg that my FB gets me.

it is really hard to get the xA and xB into the 14's with one power adder. There are only 2 others besides myself that have done so that I know of. It took nitrous also to get my 14 flat. Without N02, i'va always been in the 15's.
With the Turbo set up though, I am doing away with the N02 and getting a tune with the Methanol soon, so 14's won't be a problem.

In a nutshell, no Turbo kit, Supercharger Kit out of the box has proven to hit 14's,
I don't care about HP #'s, that doesnt mean crap.
