It is yesterday's technology. -But I would leave your car stock. It's old enough now that if it stays in near stock form, it will hold it's value pretty well. If you had the $, you could put a screw on your car and gain a lot of efficiency and performance.

see heres what im thinking. maybe the purchase the series IV or a KB and place the stock blower in a box somewhere so if the time comes to when i need to sell it i can reinstall the stock blower. IM not planning on selling the car. BTW is there a way to find out the name of the guy that owned the car before me?

Thanx. That is who I bought it from.

Now for your opinion on swapping the S/C

My vote is that you leave your car stock. Those Sa15's will be worth more in stock condition because of their limited run. But, yeah, you could swap blowers and then swap back later. If you have the $, then you could do a series 4 blower. You could also pulley up your series 1 blower. How much max psi do you push now?
