I know thats crazy and dumb but I love the aztek. It already gets 0-60 in 9.3 seconds... Thats kinda good when you consider its high curb weight and low gas consumption

Im really sad they are not making it anymore. At least now they are using the factory to make the HHR... that's equally awesome ;D

you can tune up any car, turbocharge/supercharge it, beter intake and exhaust, better fuel system, better ingintion, better suspension. the problem with your idea is that nobody does that to the aztec so it will all probably have to be custom.

the Aztek used the same engine as the Pontiac Grand Am GT, so most engine mods for that (including the RSM Racing supercharger) will fit on an Aztek.

How much would a super charger lower fuel ceonomy (apx.) ? The Aztek gets 19 / 26 as is. Would it lower it by like 1 MPG or would it be more like 2 or 3?

Depends on what your foot is made out of.

Well I mean for like normal driving and normal acceleration. I mean yah if it had a super charger you would be wanting to make use of it every once in a while but not frequently.

you shouldn't notive a big difference in mileage if you accelerate at the same rate and go the same speed. i don't know any specifics in terms of how much loss. notice i said accelerate the same, not use the same foot position, you wont need as much throttle to accelerate the same as before so use less throttle after you install it.
