Does anyone know if it is possible to supercharge *or turbo* a carburated 4 cylinder 2.0L? If anyone knows anything on this subject, please let me know. Thanks

........... like I said, I'm trying to make it as easy as possible to get this set up going and hopefully working sometime later on. Again, any help is very helpful. Thanks

*do you have any pics of a currently supercharged 914 motor?*

1st thing to do is "remove" carburator from your vocabulary (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

I know pictures have been posted before, yet no luck in finding them....I guess best bet is to close your eyes and picture this supercharger sitting on top of the motor...the belt would be driven off a pulley that is in between the fan and the motor....there was a company in FL many, many years ago that installed a supercharger and might have made a kit, but I have never seen anything about it except some really poor pictures printed in VW & Porsche magazine 20 years ago.

Best bet it spend $23 for SUPERCHARGED, by Corky Bell available at amazon.com
