Thanks Imo00 :-)
Hi Erik - yes it is notable that all the contributions so far have been twin screw (bar Imo00 ).......what is Tim's estimate of boost/power from this early 32v kit ? Intercooled ?

Not sure on power estimations.

I feel Abby's frustration: going by there in a few hours to continue my pressure (if that's worth anything). I have your intake pipe ready to paint to send on Monday: my hopes are that the pipes will be here by then. Happy bird day!

I know you want them here as badly as me, so my bitching is not at you.
Maybe everything will come together in December.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Go turbo. They are more efficient, and they make more HP per PSI. Here's a dyno from one of my Supras, it's only a 3.0L (181CI) and has a 140k miles. The last run was 16psi, using a T61, and the low run was 12psi. The difference in the runs was boost controller adjustment - something you can't do with a supercharger.
I can only imagine what this turbo would do with the bigger displacement 928.

Gee, thanks Wade - we've never been made aware of the advantages of Turbo's.
Kinda apples to oranges though posting that dyno chart - from a car designed for a turbo application.

I wish i had a dyno of my 82 928 turboed but don't since I bought it last month. I know it's not a 32v but the 9:1 CR would be more favorable for boost. I'm going to shoot for twin T3s - one hanging off each bank or a single T6 series.
