Turbo or Supercharger

A Turbo or Supercharger is the best way to increase power and torque to large amounts than another engine upgrade.

All Turbos and Superchargers shift the power and torque curves according to the Turbo and Supercharger type used. A bigger turbo will increase turbo spool time, reducing throttle response. For this reason an Anti-Lag System is a must, greatly improving throttle response. An Anti-Lag System will only be applicable if the original engine aspiration of the vehicle has a turbo. Upgrading a naturally aspirated engine with a turbo, will mean you will have to test if the increased engine performance out weighs the reduced on throttle response.

The Intercooler increases both peak power and torque at higher RPM's, with the Racing Intercooler giving the most pronounced effect.
