It never stops with superchargers. After you put one in, you want even more power, which leads you to a new pulley set, which leads you to a new forged bottom end, which leads you to LT headers, which lead you to aone piece drive shaft, which leads you to a different gear ratio, which requires stronger LCA and rear suspension parts, which leads you to a new K member with torque limiters, which leads you to billet this and forged that, and now you need a tower brace that will require a new tall cowl hood, and on and on and on.
Anyone who thinks putting in an SC for 6 grand is all their is to it, is just plain naive.
Yep you are correct it's a never ending vicious circle that is very hard if not impossible to break but hey what the hell you only live once. Gotta wonder though who pissed in your cheerios today.....

i was tearing up the countryside this morning (with my 450rwhp),
wondering what 550rwhp would feel like . i was thinking about building
a forged engine this winter, just to be able to turn up the boost.....

Yeah, my car does not feel as fast as it used to. I think that maybe I should throw some more power down...but everytime i get pulled over it brings me back to reality (two sherriffs with their hands on their guns at the windows kinda deflates my need for speed).
