I Wish There Was An Aftermarket Blower for the E55

I wish someone made a more efficient supercharger than the ones we have on now. I believe ous is only a 1.9L Supercharger. I wanna get Kenne Bell to produce a blower for our cars. Who's in with me?

Ours is 2.3L and it's already as efficient as can be. We just need a larger one. Maybe a 2.9L Whipple? YUMMUY!

But I'd honestly prefer to just turbocharge the car. It'll pretty much cost the same and make bigger power.

It's the same SC as far as I know, it just runs more boost.

Could you do rear mounted turbos while working the supercharger?

Could? Yes. Should? It's really up to you. The space is available, the tune is the biggest issue.

already been done with a 3.2 lite s/c engine in a crossfire. buckhead imports in atl is tuning the car. he did a single turbo pushing the s/c. close to 500 rwhp. e/c also helped another xfire swap the s/c to a turbo on his xfire. after refining and adding a huge turbo he is close to the limits of the trans in torque and 450 rwhp. remember this is all in a v6

You want more power, just add some squeeze. 75 pills would get the job done. Cheap and effective when setup correctly. TTM has a nice setup
