Supercharging is a long-term goal for my TR6. To me, the idea of a true bolt on performance kit is quite appealing. Someone told me that the supercharger manufacturer and the TR6 owner in the articl

What about nitro? I saw a TR6 so equipped at the TRF party. Looked very professional. Unfortunatel;y, the owner was not around. Seems like a cheaper way to get another 50HP.Anybody been there, done t

cheaper Stu, Nitro (I assume you are talking about nitrous oxide, which is an oxygen enrichment, rather than nitro-methane, which is a fuel) is indeed a cheap way to get some quick HP, but you are ve

Not cheaper in the long run; nitro has a habit of making engines wear very, very quickly. You also only get 90 seconds (at best) worth of 50HP... and I think if you let it run for more than 5 seconds

It's a bit more complicated than that... for normal running, compression in a supercharged engine has to be lowered to decrease the chance of detonation--where the mixture explodes from heat of compr
