im asking for advice as to turbo or supercharge my 1275 as im rebuilding it at the moment. any advice or recommendations of what to and what not to do would be appricaited.

if u want easy boost.
get that supercharger kit.
that, IS the easiet way to boost ur car i reckon.

turbo's and carby motors are alot of messing around IMO, but not to say it can't be done. PM kazjim about turbo's.
and well ring ben about the supercharger kit. all i can say is he has his 998 running 14.7's on 14psi.
anyone know what 998's do stock?

About 14.7 minutes.

well i prefer turbo's . but it is alot of stuffing around. look at it this way a supercharger uses power to make power (crank driven) and a turbo uses waste energy (exhaust) to make power although when the turbo isnt matched to the engine properly can be alot of turbo lag. but i love the feel of the turbo kicking ya in the back when it comes on boost.

rather than a supercharger which just gives u power from the get go

To the Wo Wo Wo

i have personally had the pleasure to drive alot of different cars, turbo and superchargered!

i have driven 300kw supercharged jags(AWSOME), 171kw commys, wrx's soarers and of coares volvos!,

if u are to have it as a fast street car, for comfort aswell, i would go the super charger,
smooth on power, and smooth of power if u get what i mean!, (nicer power band aswell, and easier to control!!!)

but if u want the "hectic BOV" noise then go the turbo!

i actually want to do a wicked suoercharger conversion on a 1310 or bigger!
(but funds rule)

just my preference!!

good luck either way!!!

ben's the guy in adelaide that does the supercharger kits.
PM me for his details.

okay

if you go turbo, you have the choice of a factory turbo set up from the metro, and you don't need extractors.

if you supercharge its going to have to be a custom job

if you're doing a custom, then you have to choose a blow through or suck through set up.

hehe, you're like ben's publicity guy.

yer i've had half of ausmini pm me.
he's gonna be like "alright who gave u my number!?"

it is true why not go for both ive seen it done on me mates bro's rotary 323 blower then at a certain rpm it switches off ( clutch type) and the big turbo does the work.
maybe not practical for a mini but still an idea the same

you know... you probably could've pm'd me...

i get it... i pm you so you can pm me back... mmm.... much easier
