hellion turbo, or MMR is what they were telling me. as far as supercharger i was like vortech alot and procharger. chargers are cheaper and easier to install, so i'm forced to go that route. turbos give you more power without using any power more efficient, more boost.more power. alot of people running twins. all of work for a turbo.

nitrous kit could work too until you have enough for a supercharger

500$ for about 100 hp 100+ tq


not sure how safe it would be to use a nitrous kit AND supercharger though

You also need to add on the price of a tune!

You take your car to a tuner and have him dyno tune it.

Some people just use the canned tune on either a SCT or Diablo but I don't trust them canned tunes at all.

i hear its fine to run untuned on 100 shot or less if you run 93 octane (on stock 87 octane tune) and 1 step cooler plugs.

i don't think i have any place around in VA that i can take it to dyno... i've used the superchips tuner... wasn't impressed. didn't calibrate anything, think just advanced the timing and dumps fuel into the motor hahaha.
