ok i read the sticky post, but what is the real differents between turbos and supers, which gives more power and which robs less gas

 

Good of you to bring up a new topic? No supercharger gets as good of mpg as my turbo "radix guys"

Do a "SEARCH"

And WELCOME!!!

 

ty. ya this fourm is dead at 6 in the morning

 

if ya drive it right, both will get about the same mileage as stock, since you arent getting into boost, with the turbo getting a hair bit better mileage, since it is the more efficient of the two. but if you drive it hard and get into boost, both will get worse mileage

boost is boost, no matter how it is introduced there will be a power increase

 

I get better highway MPG now then I did stock, average is about 1mpg lower but highway is about 2 higher. Of course that is also with ALOT of tuning.

 

LMAO. I like mashed potatoes with the skins still in it. MMMM MMMMM MMMMMMMM


My gas mileage sucks ***. When I take it easy it sucks less ***, but it still sucks ***.

What kind of HP are you looking to get? What is your ultimate perfomrance goal? BTW, if you say anything over 450HP, be prepared to make your list of items longer. This breakng, that breaking...

 

not real sure right now. depends on if i keep the 2000 silverado with 171000 miles i have and rebuild the engine, put a t56 and do a body work, or get a newer say 2003. what ever i do im gettina t56 the one thing i know.

ohhhhhhhhhhh mashed potatoes with out skins and brown gravy mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

Turbo's will make more power hands down. Both will make a **** load of power depending on setup. What are your goals? You want a compete kit that you install, drive and think nothing else about it? It all depends on what your wanting to do.
BTW, if your worried about gas mileage......just step away from the truck and dont mod it for more power. Sure, you can get decent mileage with a modded vehicle, but in the overall scheme of things...good mileage and performance dont go together.

 

im not talking about getting good millage. but i dont want a truck that gets 5 mpg.

 

Ok, with that being said. Just as stated earlier. Under normal driving, not getting into boost, you will still get right about the same mileage as you do now. I have not checked mine, a little scared to know what it really gets...but, I'm guessing I still manage around 12-15 mpg, thats with over 700fwhp. Thats what's so great about fuel injection and forced induction. You can make a ton of power and it not be a complete gas HOG
