    What's wrong with your fuel injectors?

    What're you replacing them with? No need to add more fuel into your engine if you're still naturally aspirated.

    It really depends on how much power you want out of your engine.
    The supercharger for the 3.4 has a max of around 275-300 rear wheel with all the mods added on.
    Without all the mods 245 rear wheel hp.

    The supercharger is limited because it can only spin 15k-18k at its limit.

    That puts you at the performance just a little better than a 2018 WRX performance window,
    Closer to an Subaru STI level.
    Don’t know what the 4 banger numbers are supercharged.

    I know because I bump into these Subaru’s all the time in the mountains.

    If you want more turbo for sure, maybe follow your friends lead that used the Volkswagen turbo.


    Supercharger is dam reliable once setup correctly tho.

    1,600 hp on a dyno’d twin turbo 5VZ special pro setup!, it’s retuned to 700hp range because the drivetrain can’t handle it. We’re talking Dodge Demon power here. The 5VZ in the right hands can scoot. There was a n/a 5VZ @ 500 hp done by LC, ask em, but n/a took a lot of work, so they scrapped the project, I almost bought the motor, but I live in Ca. I would never pass smog but I will do that soon even if I need a under the table smog deal.
