Default does anyone know if one exists

does anyone know if anyone has ever built a supercharged subaru, i know in reality it would be pointless but people do a lot of pointless things these days, maybe a crazy austrailian with a non turbo has done it

Yes, there are quite a few around, a few of them were built in this country.

The costs were horrendus from the planning I did for mine (hence why it never happened). Saying that, I was planning a 2.5 or 3.0 h6 twin supercharger to be different.

One of the members on Surreyscoobies (scooby dan007) has supercharged a 2.0l GL bugeye wagon, using a supercharger from a mini.
