Just wondered if anyone who has a SuperCharger on their 944 NA and could
share their experience???  I see SpeedForece has them $5500 US for a 100
horses...crazy, I know but wondered if others have used these and tossed
their AC units. Could be other units out there for better prices.  And yeah,
yeah, I know...crazy , go buy a turbo, blah, blah...heheehe  Seriously,
thats not helpful when you already put in a lot of man hours.

Please share..

I wouldn’t do a supercharger.It’s like robbing Peter to pay Paul. Too
much parasitic loss of HP... Maybe that’s why Porsche offered a Turbo.
You’ll stick a supercharger on a early 944 @ ~150hp and at 8lbs of
boost maybe put out 175-190hp. And since your internals aren’t forged
you run slightly lean once and boom theres your piston in liquid form.
