[kelman]

hey sorry prob sound like a bit of a tard but not really too enlightened on the mods, can anyone tell me what a blower does? and how much and is it worth getting for performance enhancing?

If you really don't know what it is, I don't think you should even be considering it.

Dont mind him, some people just have their panties in a twist. The idea of the forum is to help/teach.


A blower is supercharger. Costs vary depending on type (centrifugal etc).
If your looking at getting one, best bet would be to do an L67 transplant (or just buy a VS Calais or Stato with one from factory)

You're right, its a DISCUSSION FORUM. Not everyone knows everything. Which is why we share our knowledge. If you dont want to share yours, this forum isn't the place for you.

Have a look in the General section (V6 tech), and search for the L67. You should learn abit just from reading posts in there.

No problem, just sometimes this isn't the best place to find the answer to the more simple type questions. Anyway, goodluck and hopefully you will learn some new things
