Speaking of Santa Fe, that's where I live. I've always referred to the altitude here as a "reverse turbo". I suspect that if I could get the engine power clear up to zero, (sea-level performance, that is) I'd be able to live with the 2.1 WBX . I think 4 or 5 lbs. of boost would probably accomplish that. Anybody know of a small supercharger system that would work in that range -- and integrate with the fuel injection system? I can't see how that would put more strain on the engine than running it at sea level without a blower. Any ideas? Bob |
