Default Power Enterprise SP OR Blitz SP

Hey folks! I am enterested in getting a SP kit for my box. I am leaning more toward the Power Enterprise kit one of the main reason is its proven 40% gain. I am also looking toward the Blitz kit. Which gives the most boost and power to the wheels? If any One has either of these kets I would be glad to here your opinions on them! Thanks guys!

I am in the same boat as you-I am thinking the SC way is easier than turbo and you can still add a header for more gain at the same time.

I would question the GReddy against these as well and then I am also wondering if any of these kits are more or less adaptable to an intercooler than the others?

Superchargers are no good on a B. Why would your want something that takes power to make power. A supercharger will take about 10% power from the motor just to get boost. You will get alot more power out of a turbo.

You wont lose power but you wont gain much. A supercharger takes power to make power, and the 5lbs. of boost that they produce is nothing. You would be alot happier with a turbo and you will see alot more power gains with it.

Then why it that susperchargers are the popular choice over turbos? Ive taken a look at the parts section and seems to me that theres more Xb owners buying SP's than Turbos.

I run the blitz supercharger and i dynoed higher than Blown xA and Tangos xB Greddy turbo untill they upgrade and tune their turbo. so out of the box, blitz dyno's a tad more. Turbo has more potential but theres nothing wrong with putting superchargers on an xB.

Pressure is pressure. You're not going to see one benefit over another since these engines aren't even made for forced induction.

pressure is pressure sure....

the engine will benefit from boost either way but why tear your motor up by supercharging it when you can turbo it and get alot better response from boostring your motor...

turbos load the engine evenly, a supercharger loads the end of the crankshaft up. the turbo is taking wasted energy to provide boost where the supercharger is creating resistance in the bottom end of the motor to provide boost.

a turbo loads all of the engines internal bit more evenly then a supercharger, therefor a turbo would be better for a motor period. a supercharger is probably better for tuning simplicity but not necessarily reliability.

The only issue as far as reliability would be load on the main bearing from the supercharger pulley, but I haven't heard of any problems with that. The main problem with these engines isn't with the turbocharger or the supercharger, but with the engine itself. No one is going to be running crazy boost on a stock engine, so net output will be pretty much the same. Like I said, the turbocharger isn't going to provide any sort of benefit over the supercharger, and as far as packaging goes, the supercharger is a million times better than any turbo kit I've seen for the 1NZ.
