Supercharger, was: Re: turbo 'rocs

That sounds pretty good.  I just like solid lifter heads though.  I have my
rev limiter set at 7750 and I can hold it there in third gear.  It just
sounds so cool.  I've never tried it in 4th but I've had doing more than
7000 rpm.  One night on an open stretch of road I had it turning 6500 in 5th
and it was still climbing.  I backed off because the front wheels were
feeling real light.  FYI the car has a 4k in it.

Im using the ABA 2.0L block and the GX hydro head w/ 38mm valves. and the
thing pulls hard enough to do 1st gear rolling wheel chirps without
dumping the clutch.. (im very afraid to do that.. 210mm 16v clutch coming
soon)..
BTW. 210psi per clyn.. its bad ass.
It pulls harder than the 20v 5clyn ...
