im not quite sure if i want to buy this and put it on my car now cause im not sure how my stock motor will hande it

my question is how will my car handle this supercharger?? with the mods below? im gonna have to get bigger Fuel injectors.. i believe the SC comes iwth a compatible fuel pump.. what else will i NEED to be able to handle this SC, and is my stock components going to break from putting this on my car? my car has 115k miles on it atm but the motor seems to be running strong, i have had no problems what so ever with it. please help i need to know if this is going to break my car heh... thx lots for the help
