According to TRD it supposed to give you 40 more hp. but I've been googling around and I read little pieces here and there that,
that's what TRD claims it gives but it's really like 50-60hp. could this be true?

Any valid information is appreciated. Thanx

results may vary, but the car goes from dynoing 139 whp stock to around 190 whp, which is a gain of about 51 whp. but it says it makes the flywheel hp go from 160 hp to 200 hp, which would be 40 hp gain.

then you can have it tuned to make around 220 whp, or add a crank pulley to increase hp even more, headers, exhaust, blah blah, but that voids the warranty.

They usually underate the gains. But if you're not looking for significant gains going this route (in general). There are a few guys on here that have done amazing work with the n/a and Supercharger route. But in general it's all about what you want and how much money you want to spend.

If you are looking for just a few more horses and not voiding a warrenty / maintaining optimum motor life etc etc then supercharger isn't a bad way to go.

However the same argument for turbo'd applications can be the same. With a very modest low boost setting and a proper tune and correct tools then the motor will hold up for a long ....long time. However that's just my two cents.

What are you looking to achieve?

 

arent the 07 s/c tC's dynoing around 210whp with no additional mods?

With my set-up of. MMW Header/S-Pipe, NST 9.5psi pulley, HKS Axleback, and Fujita CAI My car made 230.19whp and 197.19tq, untuned.

 

Nice numbers btw!

 

Thanks, but unfortunately Im not on that set-up anymore. For now im s/c with an axleback, untill I go see a State Ref. Then it's back to the norm, Well minus HKS Hi-Pow... I'm using a Greddy DT right now.

 

195hp/185tq on stock bpv here

 

It will bring you up to 1,237 hp at the wheels with just the supercharger....

 

only if we're talking about forpinks here

 

Sorry I was talking about his car cuz it is so much better then any other tc to come off the line....

 

It's best to Dyno in 4th gear, not 1st. /sarcasm

 

on topic...

Many people have dyno's in the 190-200 whp range for stock S/C. Stock tC's (manual) dyno between 140-150 whp.

From an anecdotal standpoint, the power increase is very noticable. The car is generally more fun to drive all the time. It's no rocket, but you have a leg up on most super-common commuter cars.

 

Yea and most of the slower bmw's.

 

What happened? Cops?

 

lol....

 

Where can i buy those parts
