it wasn't that thread.
some guy had tuned the VX, given it a S/C, bored over cylinders and all kinds of stuff.
Even posted his 1/4 slip.

Wasn't that guy full of it though? If it's the same guy I'm thinking of he made all sorts of wild claims, but his dubious "proof" never seemed to hold up to all the scrutiny. I don't think anyone ever actually saw his VX.

Hi everyone. I have been weighing my options as far as putting a supercharger on my '00 Proton. I have driven it for 6,000 of its 86,000 total miles, so its still pretty new to me. Its been trouble free, uses less than a half quart of oil every thousand miles and averages 17.5 mpg combined. Haven't any compression figures, but all seems well in the engine compartment. Is putting a supercharger on an engine with this sort of milage advisable, or am I asking for reliability problems? Would I be better of going with intake and exhaust mods for now and worry about the s/c when rebuild time comes along? Opinions, anyone?
