Default superchager on b18b

What do you all think about superchagering a b18b ?
I am not going for total flat out racing just for a extra boost .
It will be in my daily driver 2000 gs tag.

I still prefer turbo over supercharging, because it's cheaper and can provide that little bit of extra boost you desire. Sure supercharger are instantaneous, but there's more potential in a turbo if you decide a little ways down the road you want just a little more boost than you want this time... but if you're set on supercharging then yeah JRSC is going to be your best bet, they make a good charger kit...

The JRSC for the B18B is dissapointing. Look at a turbo if you have a B18B

i think it uses a linear fmu just like most crappy turbo kits, but i may be wrong... still would go turbo, cheaper and more potential for tuning most out of it on stock internals...

Cheaper? Turbo isn't cheaper than S/C, unless you do a crappy junkyard turbo setup. However, the JRSC doesn't make much power on the LS...not worth it in my opinion.
