Supercharged = SLOW

You`ve hit he nail on the head Gorilla.
My car starts to feel less rapid after 7 mins going around Coombe.
Stateside drivers are using methanol cooled systems now to compensate for this.
Most of these superchargers (especially the Vortech types) tends to make power and torque in the higher rev range (circa above 4000 rpm ) so its great down a long straight but unless you`re a great driver you`ll end up braking earlier and and praying for grip as you try and power out of it.
However on long fast circuits such as the nurburgring , i`m told heatsoak is not a major issue....

Oh and the whole system (supercharger and manifold )weights around 40kgs.
Anthony had the stage 1 VT2 supercharger kit which made about 400bhp on the DD. It would struggle to beat a CSL imho
