Am I 'NUTZ' for....TPC turbo VS VF charger
I am wondering what your guys opinion is on my next possible project/task.....?
As you know I have my Modified VF supercharger for sale....
It has taken me alot of time/money to get to the performance level it is at now.In a video I ran it against a 2009 Gallardo LP 560-4 E gear(560HP) with my willing passenger(extra 200 pounds or so) and the car held up surprisingly well,shocked the Aston Martin behind us,LOL.
So what is it with my wanting to try this TPC turbo....not even released yet?
Is it the fact that the turbo is 'NEW'........seems to bring that saying to mind,"Grass is always greener"!
I do believe the turbo will make a bit more power BUT at what cost and time for me to do the uninstall of my charger and re-install the TPC turbo?
Do you guys think that there will be that big of a difference between the centrifugal supercharger and a turbo besides belt driven VS exhaust driven?
And if so,what kind of power do you think it takes to drive the supercharger at 7000 rpm?
If I do go through with this would you want to see a DIY install of the TPC turbo?
HELP...I am losing my mind with the thought of this.....there are sooo many pros and cons.....help me list them!?
I need some outside help to over-look this idea......
You guys know way more than me,so please do some comparisons for me in case I am missing something!
