There *IS* a switch available.

It is called your right foot. At low throttle positions there is no boost with any supercharger ( or turbo ).

A switch serves no real use other than the "oh neato" factor.
My bad if someone already said this but I didn't feel like reading all the post so... Root superchargers.This supercharger is the positive displacement type which produces the same amount of airflow no matter what the engine speed. The boost level starts just over idle and maintains the set amount through-out the rev range of the engine. SO in conclusion Your wrong..... BURN

Thanks ikon,

i can't take someone serious when they don't use proper etiquette.

it is hard to take a sales pitch, when i think THEY ARE YELLING!!!



oh well, everyone has to learn somewhere/sometime...

(full payment up front, no CC... sounds shady to me)

Even if the quanity is limited in the US at this time, its not like they are going to never carry it in the US. I am sure Blitz is testing to see how well it will sell.

Intercooler would be a Very wise descision (and look cool).

www.raretrick.com has started to carry more stuff for the Scion now also... these guys know their JDM!!

neroazul,
because you can't take doc's little hint or my jest, i will spell it out plain and simple.

STOP TYPING IN ALL CAPS!!!!!!!

typing in all caps is considered yelling in these forums.

and your deal is the same i've found in other places. so iwasn't saying your deal is shady. i was saying you should learn the rules of posting (ie. not yelling) so people will take you seriously.

now with that said, when my rs1 comes in i will do a s/c and will call for more info.

No, I am not wrong.

At low throttle positions there is no boost.

Get in a car with a roots supercharger and try it, look at the boost gauge.

You simply don't know what you are talking about, and should listen to advive of people like me who have first hand experience and know what they are talking about.

YOu jackmott are completely CORRECT .

In the miata in my sig there is no boost at the lower RPMs, and i want to say there is now boost when you are staying at a constant RPM also, But i haven't stayed at a constant speed for long :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
