Supercharger vs Turbo

[Nytrosnox]

I have a chance to purchase a MPI supercharger for my 13 Nytro xtx for $2000. There has been a lot of talk in the past on turbos vs supers. Just looking for any updated info. Pro vs cons. Quality, adjustments, power off line, power in off trail use, wheelies!

Low boost on the SC?

I had the same decision to make few years ago I decided on turbo better on fuel plus supercharger adds alot of weight up front. Also I think the turbo with behave better on the trail. This is just my opinion either way will be a blast to ride came very close to buy supercharger.

Can't aford a turbo, but think that might be the way to go.

Are you running low boost? I would start calling around see if you can find one what I did picked up a high elevation turbo kit just make it run low elevation.

I just got a sc for my apex xtx and cant wait to see what it will do you can read Kinger's build he is super happy with his SC.

Supercharger will spool quicker on the bottom, fuel mileage is better on the turbo...power comes on faster with a Supercharger but you get more power out of a turbo with less power loss from the motor at the same levels of boost, thats how mine seem to be anyway.

No maintenance with a Turbo, no belts and no oil to change. A $50/$80 boost controller and you can easily change boost level's if you want.

I also found that same great deal on A MPI mountain kit. Best $2k I ever spent.
