Default supercharged ls??? anyone?

hey, hows it going guys....im about to get a JRSC for my LS. Has anyone here done that before? Im kinda curious of what its going to be like, well...i know its not going to be crazy fast or anything but as long as it sounds crazy awesome and its faster than my B16 CRX I'll be happy enough. Well if you know someone that has this or if you have, tell me about it.
thanks alot.

JRSC's are overrated, get a turbo

Ask tegbooster. He is stripping his JRSC off to forgo a turbo project.

JRSC is not very popular amongst our cars. People on this site will most likely tell you it is a piece of shit and not to put it on your car.

yea, i know its not going to be really fast at all....but i found a pretty good deal on it, it bolts right up and i think that it will just be badass sounding. yea, i like turbos but ive been looking around and cant find a good deal anywhere!!! but yea, i know if i wanted power, i should go with a turbo...but maybe ill switch later....i found a good deal......but do you know any quarter mile runs or anything? do they sound cool as hell? like really loud????

I'd imagine power that instantanious in a light weight fwd car would result in lost speed/track times do to lack of ability to hook up?

i don tlike the way SC's sound IMO. I heard a SC 5.0 stang and when it punched it it whined like a bitch. REALLY HIGH PITCH noise, almost blowing my ear drums. he says he lost because he was faster, i say i lost cuz my body couldnt function after hearing that nosie

don't bother... trust me.. how "good" is your deal...

-you will be making about 30-35hp over stock with about 25-30 increase in tq
-if you like the sound of s/c's yes they do have that high pitched whine
-what everyone is saying is right... turbo is better... but if ur heart is set on it... don't plan on 200whp b/c it's not easy
-install is quick and easy, but have a spare belt on hand (it will break within the first 1000 miles of that thing running)
-get a boost gauge, u wanna make sure ur not losing boost in the higher RPM

thats about all i can think of as far as facts....i'd still recommend a turbo... but if u want a little bit of power and u are too impatient to save up, go for it !!
