I was wondering if anyone had 0-60 times for Supercharged and Turboed AP1s...

Also which of the 2 is more reliable..

Thank You

It all depends on the tune and how much more power you're making from stock. Also, it depends on whether you're willing to make sure that you build and reinforce the parts that you know boost is gonna be more wear & tear on(i.e. internals of the motor, differential, tranny, driveshaft among others).

Give us something to work with and we may suggest some options(i.e. power you wanna make, street driven)?

0-60 times will vary between supercharged and turboed motors.

Reliability comes down on whether you motor is built depending on your power goals, tuning, maintenance and drivers skill.

With boost, power (and hence 0-60 times) is to a large extent a function of how much money you want to spend. We've seen more engine faliures with turbo setups than with the Vortech and Comptech superchargers, but with proper tuning, more than a few people have achieved good reliability with a turbo.

As others have asked, what is it that you want to do with the car?
And also, how fat is your wallet?

OP just wants random numbers, if he wanted specific information he would've done research or asked more specific questions. So in the spirit of his post:

Turbo 0-60: varies between in the 3's (probably high 3's) to as slow as high 4's (could be worse depending on driver)

Super: a little slower than that as power band is probably narrower than a "comparable" turbo set up

your question won't provide you with any useful information, IMO.

I'm guessing stock 0-60 times of an S seem slow to the OP. 5.4 seconds isn't something to laugh at imo.


Anyway, since we're on this topic, does anyone know the 0-60 times of the KW supercharger high boost kit?

I normally don't care much for 0-60 times but I'm just curious.

If I knew how to drive I bet my 0-60 would be insanley low for such a low-powered TURBO car, look at the TORQUE down low

RED MX5

As you approach 4 seconds, grip, and driveline strength, become and issue.
LOL, the car wasn't exactly designed for pulling hole shots.

Mr. Francesco

Supercharger is more reliable, but then again a well properly tuned turbo setup can be very reliable also.

As for 0 - 60, it can vary on the setups and tunes. SC builds boost and power high in the rpm range where a turbo can build boost in the low/mid rpm's.

i can feel the stress on those synchros already...haha repeated 0-60 (1st to 2nd gear) runs
