it wasn't that thread.
some guy had tuned the VX, given it a S/C, bored over cylinders and all kinds of stuff.
Even posted his 1/4 slip.

Wasn't that guy full of it though? If it's the same guy I'm thinking of he made all sorts of wild claims, but his dubious "proof" never seemed to hold up to all the scrutiny. I don't think anyone ever actually saw his VX.

Is putting a supercharger on an engine with this sort of milage advisable, or am I asking for reliability problems? Would I be better of going with intake and exhaust mods for now and worry about the s/c when rebuild time comes along? Opinions, anyone?
