Can you supercharge a GT3?
I am about to buy a GT3 and the crazy idea of supercharging it came to my mind..... is this possible with its normally aspirated engine?
Thanks in advance for your response and/or comments..!

you can supercharge an NA engine but the problem with the gt3 is: very high compression and much $$$ that youre better off with a tt.

Its a high compression engine therefore its either impossible or extremely difficult. You better have a supercharged wallet if you wish to undertake such task.

Might as well get a GT2.

its actually a great idea, but yould have to lower the compression a bit.

Buy a Turbo. Compression is too high. GT3's are not meant to be supercharged.
