Supercharger?
Hello all, it's been awhile, I have been loving my S4 for months now. Here's the thing, I live at high altitude which sucks HP down the drain.
I was wondering if anyone has installed a supercharger on their S4 and if so, how does ot work and where did you get it?
Thanks for your help

Maybe I should hold my breath
but a NA engine shouldn't have FI without internal modifications.
That's my smell test, reasonable minded sort of comment.
It's one thing to take a B5 which is made to be blown and juice up the boost. It's another to slap a supercharger and expect it to be the next thing.
BUT. I will wait and see what we have from the tuners. I'm not aware of APR or AWE or whomever messing with a supercharger on a production scale before. I know I could be wrong, but my understanding has been with them hopping up motors already designed to handle boost.
I wish them all good luck in designing a system that actually works and doesn't blow the living **** out of this motor.
