    Default Found pics of supercharger...so...contrast

    I dunno thought this is cool to see since my car was custom supercharged and is now custom turbocharged.

    In with the new:



    looking for some more pics of my blower build since that was a feat too... I just think it's funny the stuff this car has undergone.

    Whenever I see a 'charger retro install, I always wonder about brake servo efficiency and whether it's affected.

    the booster stores a few applications worth of vacuum and you are not making boost all of the time, and every time you back off of the throttle you top off the vacuum supply, just like normal
