then u have to tap the oil pan, pipe it, cool it, and it will cost u more in the end.

slap a s/c on and ur pretty much done. plus u cant beat the cheap pulley swap.

I'll be getting a Vortech SC as soon as my HCI is done this summer. Which Vortech are you planning on getting? How much boost you gonna run? What will your #'s be? My goal is to get to 325 - 350 whp once HCI and SC are done.

Where in MA are you? I'm in Charlton, about 30min SW of Worcester.

Supercharged HCI and your only looking for 350rwhp? You can hit 300 with just HCI. With a blower on top of that, even at 6 psi your gonna be more like 400.

I plan on supercharging with a procharger of some sort, either D1-SC or P1-SC whichever is cheaper when I finally getthe money forgetting one. Procharger, just because there's no oil pan tapping and the air to air intercooler.
