This supercharging idea isn't official yet, just deciding on which way to go as I do want to run boost in the near future, when I turn 4th year in my apprenticeship when I earn even more money.
also with this raptor supercharger the company is found in my town and I have been hearing a lot about it when they supercharged this 1.8 CE lancer and it did a 13.9 with no other modifications, engine standard with the standard exhaust. http://www.raptorsc.com.au
Just out of curiosity how many people would be interested in supercharging if this acctually got made into a bolt on kit, I was thinking of ask them to make a few kits and sell them, my car will be the lab rat for testing and development, only thing probably is you would have to get a piggy back ecu so you can get your car tuned for the supercharger.
