Mods in my sig. wanting to go FI with either a vortech or kenne bell s/c. I have read allot about both and it really comes down to money for me, if I had the cash I would go kenne bell all the way, but I know you can get a great setup with vortech on a budget. In any case, currently with the mods I have now, should I just stop with the bolt ons and start saving for the s/c. I am planning on doing LT’s soon and that’s about it. I don’t know if I should do heads and cams for the s/c setup.

I am looking to do around 370hp to the wheels which would put me to about 400 to the crank which I would prefer without blowing **** up. At least this will give me some time to save for a built bottom end, and enjoy the new found power till then. So the question here is should I just put LT’s on then concentrate on S/C next, or should I do heads and cams as well? Once all is said and done and the supercharger goes in I will be investing in some suspension upgrades to ensure I’m planting that power to the ground.

(Not to go on a rant… but for all those thinking about, or doing suspension and in general about cars) Out of all the cars I have had there has always been one that has stood out from the rest. My 2008 Lancer GTS was the slowest car I have ever owned, but must admit was one of the finest. I dumped around 2500 dollars in just suspension on that car, and let me tell you, that little 2.0ltre 150 hp 4 banger was hanging with higher hp cars in the same class due to suspension alone. It is a world of difference when you can actually effectively plant all four tires to the ground and use every bit of hp you have. ANYWAY…… any help on the s/c would help thanks.

Many people have gotten to that 370rwhp power level with a supercharger and stock heads and stock cams. You should be OK with just the blower.

Blower preference I think just boils down to personal preference, a lot like exhaust setups.

If it were me i'd just do a IC Kenne Bell and be done with it.
