Default How much power gain with a stock '03 super

found a head unit for $450. thats a m112 eaton correct? what will i gain on that if i put it on my motor. worth the money? will have all forged internals etc, a built motor.

99% of ppl say its a waste.... you would have to get the 03/04 cobra heads and intake and timing cover and the supercharger i believe....... but you can get a vortech kit that makes more hp then eaton anyways for about 2800 new and if u look at the pipes boost juice forum then u can get a kit for about 1500$

well, tork tek makes an intake manifold kit to use the eaton, but for the price vs performance, you are better off using a vortech kit or similar. The shop I had do my gears told me he could order the vortech kit for 2300$. So, think about it, its a pretty cheap way to go really.
