    Supercharging id run no bigger than a "R" cam. Too big a cam and you will bleed boost off due to too much overlap.

    WIth a K20 id look into the Rotrex aka Kraftwerks superchargers, they are really nice and make as much power as a turbo.

    Benefits to supercharging (JRSC) is its cheap, good power, easy to install , no bov, no wg, no turbo manifold, no turbo etc

    Cons it only makes SO much power, it gets hot (no way to use an intercooler)

    What's that thing mounted in front of my radiator then? Last I checked it was a FMIC. With a centrifigual, you can use either an intercooler, or an aftercooler.

    This guy has a Honda so in that context almost 99% of the jrsc on the market don't allow use of an intercooler.

    The only ones out for k series that use am intercooler are the rotrex kraftwerks ones.
