02 4g94

FYI: Do a search on RIPP Mods. You'll find some info on supercharging.

you'd be lucky if you have a 4g64...that would be a couple things...if your car was automatic you could do a 5 speed swap from 3g eclipse....evo motor swap with 5 speed swap....evo head swap...

i dont wanna do any engine swappping. too expensive. id make my own custom turbo kit but i dont know enough about doin it to go thru w it. it would be a nice option thou b/c its affordable. ive seen quite a few ppl do it for 2k. im just tryin to expllore all my options. i no im not gonna get instant power cheap but im still tryin to get the best bang for my buck. i looked into engine swapping and ive looked into turboing i just wanna explore the third option of sc

I think the reasoning supercharging and the 4g94 aren't that popular is you can get fairly good power out of a turbo. Plus if you add in some forged rods and pistons you can really pull out some decent numbers.

You should just search here for RIPP mods supercharger or turbos. There's been plenty of talk about both.

Theres just way more support for a turbo everywhere. Supercharged lancers are rare so not many people would be able to help you out with any problems you run into or parts you can't find. One guy with the RIPP SC dynoed at like 140 something I think.
