Kompressor on a 220?

Hi!

I've been trying to find some ways to get my 2.2 faster. And I just wondered if there would be hard to put a kompressor on it? The engines aren't too different? I could use the ECU from a C230K couldn't I? The parts are easy enough to find. Alot of crashed 230Ks out there. Hoping there are some clever guys here that could give me some advice. Is it possible? Would be cool...

Not going to happen, the 230 engine was different from the 220 to begin with, and heavily modified to accomodate the supercharger.

The only way to make your car faster is to take very good care of it, and press harder on the accelerator.

Your car has the wrong transmission, etc. It will be much easier, cheaper, and the end result will be better if you sell your car and buy a more powerful one.

Much easier and cost efficient to sell your car and pickup a c36 or c43. As mentioned the c230 komp isn't "fast" either, if you are heading the engine swap direction might as well make it worth the effort
