2012 PRHT SC application
Posted: Thu Apr 06, 2017 8:39 am
First time poster here, though I've been reading for a little while now.
I have a 2012 PRHT with 22k mi to which I've added an AEM intake and Goodwin headers/midpipe/super Q exhaust. Everything was installed and tuned at MotoEast, and is my daily driver. As much as I have enjoyed the MX5 I want more power, so am considering either selling it (the more expensive option) or alternatively upgrading to forced induction (the cheaper, but arguably less reliable option).
Regarding supercharger kits, it looks like the MP62 is the obvious option. Since this is my daily driver, reliability is paramount - is there anything aside from anecdotes that can give me comfort over reliability? Without going overboard (I expect the kit alone, including installation, will be more than $6k all told), are there other supporting modifications that are necessary such as a clutch? Any recommendations regarding which parts would be most appropriate for a daily driver would be much appreciated!
