lol damnit just read this whole thread with great interest as I've just done a bit of other reading on Superchargers and totally forgot Taza ended up changing to a different motor in the end. Mods please rename thread - $750 battery relocation project x1
Seriously though, I hope someone does another Supercharger to their Suby at some stage. I remember Subarino's one made a reasonably noticeable difference but never quite blew the pants off people as we'd hoped it would.
Also I think someone commented on here about turbos being crap offroad because of lag - not really in my experience. I ran an EJ20G in my L series for years and I had no issues with this at all. Just the original fairly small turbo that comes with the motor. I even had only the 1:19 low range which I basically never even bothered using. Off boost the motor still had way more than enough balls to get me through, and boost was always just a stomp of the right boot away to just thrash my way up hills or through sand.
