Turbocharging and supercharging have been debated against each other forever.  It'd probably be easiest to swap an engine, harness, and ECC out of a supercharged MN-12 car.  A guy who used to visit this site did it a while back, so it's do-able, just probably not easy.

From everything I have read, the smaller engines, (4 cyl. and 6 cyl) seem to respond better (only if all things on two identical engines are the same) to turbocharging.

The superchargers seem to rob too much power to run the blower on smaller engines.

OEMs love blowers better because of packaging and durability (read warranty) concerns.

Probably why the 88 TC was the last of the mid size cars with a turbo.

Is this a drag race or road race? Can Superman do a Fred Flintstone in his car or can Batman use Kryptonite for fuel? Who would sponsor this race?  Superman peanut butter, Lex Luthor enterprises? Batman could get free gas from Luthor. Superman could make his. :D

I want pics...:beatyoass:

I vote for Fred flinstone, it's slower, but safer a bit...

I guess Homer Simpson will good too, his  Plymouth never go at the garage unlesshiznitted on the tree:hick:
