no one ever said it was a waste of time, just a waste of money. Yes i know everyone wants there car to be faster but its just not worth it on some cars. If you really want to spend 3 grand, just go with an engine and tranny swap from another car. This will assure that you have a drivetrain that will hold up with that kind of horsepower. Maybe k20a and tranny from an rsx or something.

You two like to argue don't you. My point wasn't to argue one way or the other just that arguing over what someone wants to do with their time/money is pointless. There are ways of saying things that don't sound like you're calling someone stupid for doing what they want.
I'd like to do an engine swap but you'd never guess what engine. I'm most likely never going to do it but it has been done in other cars.

Hey denis I give you lot's of credit for what you attempt and ask. Alot of people can't or won't even try. Your younger than anyone on here, no? That is the best way to find out is to ask someone who knows and like we all know we arn't here to knock eachother and eachothers rides, we are here to help each other out, to offer our advice and to create a small family of Aveo/Swift/Wave owners. I love coming home to see what was writen or found out or modified everyday. Oh and the rest of my dollar that i'm putting in is that turbos kick butt. Screw the supercharger. How many small factory cars do you see supercharged? 85% of forced induction cars out there are turbos. That must say somthing. Chevy is the only one really that puts superchargers on their vehicles. On my final 2 cents I would like to say that the only thing I think you (Denis) could learn that would make a huge difference is to spell better. It's hard to read somtimes. Oh well i'm far from perfect myself.

I really could care less if there was only one or the other, I just would love to have a 50hp+ boost in my power by either means.

I've been thinking. I don't know if our composite intakes can handle boost? my have to have a custom metal one made.

chefgold wtf? did you just have a spazam? Today at work the Aveo we have in our R&D lab got the first fittament for the 2.5" manderel Bent cat back exhaust, as well as a Prototype Turbo mani. I think if We(GM) were going to release a Aveo SS/ Xtreme, it would be turboed not Supercharged.
