Hey guys I was suppose to post this a couple days ago but been kinda busy (sorry johnny). If you guys read below this is what I did a couple years ago. You guys may say damn this is a lot but it's not. For the guys who are pinching there penneys this is a great alternative. The below mods were all purchased while I was deployed to Afghanistan. So beleive me this can be done! Also I am here to help as well as a couple members on the forum. Enough talking read below.

This was written a couple years ago. BTW the kit below got me at 389 RWHP but that's with a 3.60 pulley. If you drop down to a 3.48 pulley you'll hit 400 + easy and then its time for some 5.0 chasing, lol!

Total Cost: $2170.00

Didn't quite reach the $1500.00 Supercharger build but I think I did pretty good. Could have even been cheaper if I hadn't bought the Power Pipe, Tial Bov and went with smaller injectors. Any questions guys let me know..

Nice. Coming from a guy who knows nothing about SC's, how does all this stuff go on? Lol.

Hey bro I can piece it together but have no clue about the install. I really don't think it would be that hard though. You'll have to tack on another 750 to a grand or so for the install then 400 bucks for the tune. Well worth it!

Hey guys any questions let me know. I love MF but the best classified section is corral.net. You'll be real surprised what you can find over there.

Looks like I got some research to do! Thanks for looking out!

Soldier GT

No prob. Feels good to see another New Edger wanting to run with the big dogs. We've become a forgotten breed, lol! Once again any questions let me know guys. 1st thing I bought was the Oil feed line and Oil feed drain from Vortech. After that there was no turning back!

1500$ = 400hp

but you spent like 3k and made 389hp lol

close enough right?

Soldier GT

Yeah man very close. Like I said above its a litle over 1500 but decided to buy the intercooler, BOV, Power pipe etc. This is a great alternative for guys on a budget but want a little more power.
