Default New heads and cams or supercharger

I wanna put new heads and cams or a supercharger on my 99 gt. I have 110000 on it and drive it every day. I havent rebuilt the motor yet. I just want more power out of it. I already have intake,exhaust,x pipe and suspension mods done along with a tri ax shifter.

You have a pi motor, your gains with putting a set of stage 2 Patriot heads with a set of cams will be no more than 50hp. A S/C will net you more than 100hp for nearly the same cost and less time, but if you go S/C get one with an intercooler, it's probably $500 more but well worth it, keeps everything cooler! I wouldn't run a S/C on your block with 110,000 on it though, your looking for trouble!

The motor runs great. I use ams oil and send out test samples of my oil to see whats going on in there. Is the saleen worth the money? I would rather use a roots or twin screw.

either a vortech with a paxton front mount or a procharger setup which comes already i/c'd...both will yield you mid 300's...
