View Full Version : Any other question
Since it looks les likely on been able to put a turbo on my car.
Will a supercharger from a golf g60 go on?
Also has anyone one every heard of seen a supercharger cupra sport 16v before?
VW did produce a G60 16V straight from the factory, but these are rare & if you were to convert yourself it would cost a fortune.
Stick with going down the turbo route. Turbo Technics do a good package for the 16V.

No less likely to turbo yours than to supercharge yours...
Why would you want to use a G-Lader anyway?
P*ss-poor adiabatic efficiency (60%) and needs a rebuild every 40-60K, probably less if used in something that revs to 7K+ .
A screw compressor is better from the performance point of view (80% efficiency) but you've got to live with the noise.
Ask the aftermarket supercharger sellers how they control boost when the knock sensors have retarded the timing as far as they can under WOT.
If you're going to force feed a N/A engine, do the design properly and be prepared to bleed money.
