To supercharge or not to supercharge

As above can't make up my mined its a lot of dosh but on the other hand it would be a lot of fun

Supercharge!!!
If the car is in good condition and there is nothing else you fancy for the money (RS4 + cost of charger) then go for it. Makes for an awesome combination.

Been pondering the same.

Had a couple of minor wonders:
1) what does it do to day-to-day fuel economy, when one is not flogging it?
2) what does it do to carbon build-up, either volume or rapidity?

Of course, these are far overpowered (nyuk, nyuk) by the kick in the pants. OTOH, they might contribute to justifying the cost, dontchaknow?

If you have 620 horses, are you really bothered about losing 30 to a bit of carbon?

I have been thinking this for awhile, think i am going to do it soon just sorting few things out first, i will be fitting the tts kit then mrc for mapping,

I've been thinking about this for a while too. I'm not worried about the MPH or carbon build up. I am concerned about the clutch and the brakes being able to slow you down. And it maxes the gearbox out at 193MPH.

As long as you are not launching it in first gear, the stock clutch would be fine.

I would want to add the ceramic brake kit at the same time and that would be another 6k.

I got a price from a local company for the tts it's not as bad as I thought

Do it

[rs4pat]

I've read that the supercharger helps to stop the carbon build up
