80hp out of a S/C on a EX? Maybe with some built internals and supercharger upgrade.

You will only get about 140 to the wheels (about a 40% increase in power) when you simply bolt on a Supercharger (with no mods to it) on an EX. The little SOHC motors dont seem to be as responsive the S/Cers as the DOHC motors are.

You can upgrade the JRSC by upgrading pulleys, etc. To get more power. Turbos are a lot easier to get a lot more power out of. If your just looking for something thatll give you a little more power when you want it, especially lowend. The supercharger may not be to bad. But if your looking for some serious power. Look into the turbo.

I know several people that went with the JRSC and now wish they would have spent the money on a turbo because you can only get so far with a supercharger before you start wasting way to much money to make it faster.
