And the low-end torque, which is where the Q needs it.

Supercharger would be cool too but I really like the turbo spool up and a turbo seems much easier for me to accomplish myself for much less money. I had my brothers turbo diesel Dodge truck for a couple days and it was cool hearing that turbo. hehe. Friend of mine also has a Porsche 930 Turbo that is heavily "messaged" and I love the sound of the turbo. Music to my ears.

Something like this, this has the STS kit on it. It's a twin turbo but you'll get the idea. AH YA BABY!http://videos.streetfire.net/s...5.htm

I would be interested in seeing someone come up with a viable way to run turbos without deleting any exisitng power accessories, and while still allowing the car to be driven safely when lowered (cuz honestly, how many people who would turbocharge their Qs wouldn't have already lowered it also?). A serpentine setup is one "tricky" way to gain a lot of plumbing room, but I so doubt anyone out there has considered taking such a step on the Q. My main fear is just seeing a shanked together system that looks like ***, performs like ***, and inevitably destroys a couple people's cars...like ***. That would be kinda uncool....

It sounds like you have fuel or tuning issues to work out. Or just run a bigger pulley.
You shouldn't be destroying engines just because the super is strong......
