Supercharger runs 9psi so why bother with a 6-7psi turbo kit that would cost even more to make!!!
lol you cant just compare psi between a supercharger and a turbocharger. sc are mainly torque and low end hp while turbos are more high end hp

True but even still the SC would walk over a 6-7psi turbo powered 2.8 Audi.

AWD Wheel power




The average power for these kits is around 270bhp all sing with exhaust and best fuel (none race fuel). PES was as I understand used race fuel set-up to reach 295bhp, but you can get more power out of these kits with a smaller pulley upping boost to around 10psi and on the stock system and if you can live with the noise go with the G1 kit as you can FMIC this set-up unlike the G2.

Wow, thanks everyone for all the replies. It's good to finally end up with some info about PES SC. I've been looking for the supercharged audi forum and there's a ton of info there and also sheds some light in SC upgrades. I recommend anyone interested in PES to visit SCAUDI.com as it was referred a few posts before. Extremelly comprehensive and deals with most questions. Not to mention the group buy thing which translates into 3800$ per SC :P (Guess who's riding on the next group buy)

Docurley, thanks for the dyno data and info.
