Well turbochargers are still superchargers really, just nomenclature has changed a bit so easy to tell apart.

Super mega giga hectix turbro

well technically a supercharger is something fed off the crank.

so it neither really. just an electric fan giving the system slight pressure.

in my books they have missed a great naming operturniy here.

they could ahve gone with

megacharger

protoncharger

supermegaawsome elctro boost system

It would require a decent torque high rpm motor, my only concern would be reliability, clutches in the Turbo + electric motor there is a lot more that can fail, and given a normal Turbo goes for 2k, what's a fancy electrically assisted one going to set you back?

but yeah if it for the M3/4 doubt they care about cost.

nah it the new naming convention, it's based on how much of an average CEO's base salary is needed to purchase a specific car.

SO had dealing with Osaka imports today.

only ppl in melb that seemed to answer phone/email and had a S14 door.

give them a call to see if they have one in the morning, didn't have one with the bits I needed (window, regulator blah blah) but agreed to grab the parts off other bits to get me a complete working door.

rock up 2 hours later they have the work done door sitting out the front and load it into the ute for me.

seriously in and out in a couple minutes.

why cannot more places work this well.
