    building ur own supercharger or ram air

    k. what is the diff between ram air and supercharger and price difference? and hp difference?

    also is it possible to make ur own supercharger? cause i know i guy who makes his own engines for his cars but i was wondering if it would be possible for him to make a supercharger for my 92 2.0 SOHC. not that i probably ever would. just curious.



    so would it work to take my galant, put a 2.0 DOHC in, and then instead of going turbo go supercharger?

    You would see lots more hp gain from the sc than the Ram air. Ram air is exactly what it says it is. It is air that is rammed into your intake. Typically older muscle cars utilied this but as you can see they also use on the Trans Am and Grand Am hence the Ram Air models. Take a Trans Am Ram Air for instance, the "nostrils" in the front of the car lead directly to the intake so the air is really rammed up in there. So the faster you go the more air is being shoved up in there.
