But hey, if you dont mind driving around revving all high and constantly downshifting, its all good.

well, i don't have to be shmobbing aorund all the time...i don't need a lot of power all the time...when i race, i can revv it up high tho.

If your looking for low end HP and torque...HANDSDOWN the Jackson Racing S/C kit is all you need.

I know itd be bad for a spoon engine to turbo it, cause their made for auto x...but can you supercharger it?

I've heard alot of bad things about Jackson Racing superchargers, do a search on google.com and see for yourself.

Boost is boost, supercharger or turbo its all the same when it comes to the inside of the engine. You can run low boost(turbo or supercharger) and not worry about anything, its moderate-high boost that screws up N/A intended motors.

I disagree. The Spoon motors run a very high CR, and adding boost of any kind is a good way to get some detonation. Spoon motors are all motor, period. If you want to run boost, build an engine from scratch.

What kind of compression are they running? I really dont know much about them, nor do i care, I didnt think it was that though. But seeing as how its an all out N/A race motor it is probably pretty high.

11+. Boosting them is waste of money. Why not build an 8.5:1 motor and boost the hell out of it for a cheaper price tag?
