If you had to choose a 100 hp gain, h/c vs supercharged what would our motors prefer? Seems to me like a mild boost would be better than ripping into the motor. But then again, our tuners are getting pretty good at making reliable h/cam setups.

good logic but "most" of the forced air family are street cars and you see more H/C cars at the drag strip...lots of threads on why....ZORA04 said:IMO it depends on what you plan on doing with the car. If I was planning a drag car, I would lean towards boost. F/I cars are capable of larger torque numbers than N/A, which would be beneficial for drag applications. I don't plan on taking my car to the track very often, so I have gone the h/c route. I have a cam that puts down good hp numbers and is very streetable. I also plan on upgrading to AFR 205 in the future. I can't imagine trying to control 500lb/ft on a radial tire.
