Can you post a pic of your '82? Since your 928 is already turboed, it makes it a heck of a lot easier to do upgrade it.
If you start with a stock 928, supercharging is way easier and less expensive.
Everyone on this board knows that a turbo is a lot more efficient. BUT it is also a lot more complex and more expensive.

No, it's not turbo... Sorry for the confusion.
I figure 3-4k for parts and fabricaton. I have few Supra friends that wield and fabricate header manifolds, adapters, intercooler pipes, and exhausts for a living.
John, who? Don't know if that's a jab or a joke.

Kinda apples to oranges though posting that dyno chart - from a car designed for a turbo application.

A car that was designed for a turbo application? Apples to orages? lol. Do you have any clue what that curve would look like with a 4.5 or 5.0L motor? My guess would be move the curve back 1000rpm - talk about low end torque!
The stock engine management on my Supra is 20 years old. There's nothing there in the application that can't be solved with modern EMS in a 928.

gee no problem. Remember, the original thread starter asked for turbocharger vs supercharger opinions... So, what's the problem?

I built my SC kit for under $1000 and runs 12s in the quarter. You can beat that value with a turbo setup.
Turbos are more efficient but supecharger are cheaper!
