ATE
Not “et” there is an E on the end…

GARAGE “GA-RAJE”
Not “GAR-IDGE” there is no consonant before the G and it is between two vowels

advertisement “AD VER TIZE MENT”
Not “AD VERTZMNT” there are actually quite a few vowels in this word

And finally Scone “SCOOOOONE”

There is an E at the end of the word… it’s not “Skon”

American English has been it’s own variant of the language in the same way Spanish is much different in both grammatical and verbal context. Like how the Spanish in certain regions insist on speaking with a lisp because an old monarch had one and nobody dared offend him, and now it’s a matter of pride… how petty…

And before anybody jumps on me I am English/Yankee so I’ve got a better ear on this ridiculous argument than most as I have a foot in both camps

Centrifugal superchargers, outside of being softer on your engine with the boost curve, are the least useful boost adder (IMO). If you want boost at high RPMs, get a turbocharger, which would even work better at lower RPMs depending on the unit. I don’t know if there are roots or twin screw superchargers made for the S2K, but I would take even a roots or turbo over a centrifugal. I’ll probably stir up a flame war saying this, but I wouldn’t care in the slightest if the centrifugal supercharger business completely stopped one day.

well yes a turbo would give you more power and more torque down low, but if you want throttle response and a NA power delivery feel a turbo is not ideal at all.

In addition to what Stale said, a centrifugal supercharger is far less expensive and less of installation work to do than a turbochanger. Further, it strikes a perfect balance between everyday fuel economy and hardcore high RPM power.

Can you just bave a super small pully and a massive blowoff charging a compressed air tank that releases as more on demand bonkers boost? Like running 70 pounds max and getting 45 charger /25 compressed air tank? Lol or some similar concept like on a turbl and using compressed air instead of antilag explosions? Lol

shame we didn’t have a little sneak peak on the S2000 install
