Ok guys, go easy on the noob.

And yes, there are several cars here that are super/turbocharged. Just do some searching. You will find what you're looking for in the appropriate advanced motor section. You will see the section called supercharged/turbocharged.

You can go to the supercharger/turbo forum and ask the guys in there. I'm sure they can answer your questions.

Considering you have an 03, you're **** out of luck. Sorry, but no SC for you.

Def worth it. Find one gently used like I did and it makes it even worth while

If you have to make a thread to ask questions like this, supercharging/turbocharging is NOT for you.

well you could supercharge the 03, you'd just have to swap an 01 harness and timing components....

Seems like a step in the wrong direction.

Remove CVTC and leave phasers unplugged. If you're going to remove them (CVTC), might as well spend the extra time and do what matty was attempting to do. It probably take the same amount of time, but with added market interest.

Stop recommending people find a good deal? you go ahead and pay full price. I meant to say find a gently used one and its even more worthwhile saving you from paying full retail. I got my system with the piping and everything for a $1k. How can you talk **** about that am I missing something?

Yup... hopefully he'll figure it out. Don't anyone say anything, let's see if he can figure it out for himself.

Jack the thread for a minute here too since a few regulars are on right now. Does anyone know of an .org member in the SE U.S. looking to buy a 5th gen? Its my dads completely stock '02. Well taken care of with about 200k IIRC. In great cosmetic shape. Just wanted to gauge interest before I posted it in the for sales bc its nothing special. Just unmolested with higher mileage but well taken care of.

And the advise is...

Or, you can start a "gauging interest" thread and see what happens.
