Default Supercharger

i know this has probably been asked a bunch of times but how would i go about supercharging my car? its pretty much stock. so what would be a good psi and what other parts would i have to put in to it? also what would be a rough overall estimate of the price?

You'll need injectors, fuel pump, the S/C, throtle bodie, and safe boost is 7-10 depending on if its cooled or not. Price is 3k-5k would be my best guess....

You guys correct me if I am wrong......

Yeah and that's just the tip of the iceberg. Then it will need to be tuned.

you can run about 8-10psi with a good tune.

blowers run anywhere from $1,900 for 6psi powerdynes to $5,000 turbo kits

vortech superchargers running 8-10psi are very popular and cost about $3,000

www.Kennebell.net makes a twin-screw (like new cobra's have) for about $3,000

www.hellionpowersystems.com makes nice turbo kits that put down 400hp on stock engine for about $5,000
