S/C Build Complete..
REPOST!!! I've had a couple members ask the the following quesitons:
How did I buy the Supercharger while deployed?
Where did I buy it from?
How long did it take me to get everything?
What parts will I need for a complete S/C build?
How much did it cost (total cost)?
etc., etc.,
So I've decided to reach into the archives and repost this thread. If you've seen it before I apologize.. The build up is on page 1..For you guys that's looking to build a S/C I did this (with the help of Kerns) while deployed to Afghnastain. So stop talking about and do it da****, lol! Below is the original traffic...
Well Gentelman after 2 months of searching, negotiating and some time pleading the S/C build is complete. I really want to thank Kerns because it was he, who suggested that I do this, when I was so reluctant.. To the guys who want a S/C but can't afford it, this is most def the way to go. I was all set on buying a V3 S/C (non-intercooled) from superchargersonline for 3600 bucks plus a couple hundred bucks shipping.. For a Vortech V-1 T-Trim intercooled S/C with all accessories................. Total price: $2170.00. I did this while deployed (with the help of my man Kerns) so if I can do it, anybody can do it. Below, For the guys looking for a S/C, I'm gonna post price, location etc, etc.. My only advice to you if you go this route try and buy the head unit 1st. I was so hyped to get started I bought the plugs 1st, lol! Here you go..

what kind of boost does a kit like that put out? real question is is it a must for an intercooler on that kit "t-trim" bc as of right now i have a v1 s-trim said to put out 7-9lbs with the stock pulley and vortech support rep said i wouldnt need an intercooler with my kit. so b4 i try to do an install im just debating on should i just get an intercooler with the bov or should i just buy a bypass valve and get the kit bolted on bc it didnt come with a bypass valve
