View Full Version : Super Charger? Ken 4000 07-06-2001, 12:07 AM has anyone attempted to add a super charger to a cis system? or know anyone who has, pls post your opinions Lambo-Bully 07-06-2001, 10:25 AM WOULD REALLY LIKE TO ATTEMPT IT MYSELF, BUT I'M MORE HOOKED ON THE TURBO'S... Evilclown 07-06-2001, 12:06 PM And Callaway did a few turbo CIS cars(Scirocco and 4000q), and I've seen a few turboed/SCed VWs. The general word on aftermarket ones is, when they're not needing to be worked on, they're awesome fun, but the time and money spent maintaining them is ultimately not worth the fun(you'll spend a good 85-90% of the time you own it working on it). Factory turbo CIS cars seemed to get good results, but get persnickety as they get older. CIS is a great system, but it's very finicky and hard to get set right. Once it's going, though, it's awesome. Ken 4000 07-06-2001, 08:10 PM it is a sweet system, i got that book you told me about and i been tuning my car almost every day to try different setups, i got it running great with gas right now, 155miles on half a tank. im thinking about just going to the junk yard and taking what i need for the turbo from a 1.8l and just converting into a turbo but i need to find some decent doumentation on what i can and can't use, and what i need to get and can do without.
