Hmm - this is one of the cars I specifically wanted to be able to come play.

Superchargers are special, as they are proportional to engine RPM, and so can't
make the big boost numbers that turbos can. Even the aftermarket Vortech stuff
makes like 3-8 PSI

What's the most boost anyone has ever run in one of those cars? Be honest...

There's some formula relating turbo/non turbo, displacement, and weight that'll
work - we just gotta work it out.
