About turbos and superchargers?

Yeah I have a brand new 2003 Ranger XLT FX/4 level II, with a 5 speed manual!

I was wondering can you put a turbo or super charger on it or no?

You will have to fab the ductwork yourself to run a turbo on that thing. I believe there are a couple of supercharger kits that are available and would be a cheaper option.

Yeah I live in wisconsin! Thanks for you input!

Oh are you saying that I can put a supercharger on it cheap.....but I assume I would have to fab it into the duct work just like the turbo right?

very litlle ducting is required for superchargers compared to turbos. mostly just a new air intake duct to the s/c intake.

cheap is relative. a supercharger will cost you about $2k whereas a turbo setup will be cheaper for the parts, but more expensive as far as time and installation parts go.
