After having a powerful Turbo, why would you want a crappy supercharger?

dude, not everything is about mad power. I want to go for a different driving feel and instant throttle response. Im switching out of my current scca class to most likely csp. After driving turbo cars for a number of years now, i want to go to something different.

jeff, thats just funny and the thought has crossed my mind

You can get a 13BT kit, not too difficult to do with the swap kit. I forget who sells it though. Or go 12a with IDA's and a wicked port job. mmmmm. tasty.

Id rather the 12A. Who sells this kit? This may be more than a likely option.

I checked that but non of their links on the home page are working.

Like I said, it is an option to do this but I really do like the BP enging from the miata. Belive it or not, with the right build, that motor is capable of may more power than the 12A will give me. Now granted im not going for ridiculous power again but I can get a 8000 rpm redline safely with a stock 130 hp miata engine.

Any other suggestions other than the 12A?
