bolt ons may get you there but its a lot of work

sc/turbo will be more impressive to friends and all and will hav that punch with the boost

sc is better than turbo imo because sc will be cheaper and turbo may blow the engine sooner
Lol get some information before you decide to post w/e garbage you have in your brain. A a turbo is less stress on the engine because it is not forcing the main bearing push an aditional belt. #2 to get a supercharger kit to high hp see how much it will cost you. Look at the KB options with the heat exchanger and so on.

Trade + 7,000 = 2007 Stage 3 Roush and maybe low payment?
So you want to pay more for a Stage 3 roush which is around what? 40? With 10k you can make a stage 3 roush and with a better supercharger not that pos roots style s/c; might aswell get a electric s/c while you are at it.

I wouldn't go the Roush S/C, centrifigal chargers don't make as much power as twinscrew.
I'd go with a saleen if you just want a hellish fast street car, and Whipple or Kennebell if you plan on going to the track.

Also you could just stay N/A and just do some minimods, new gears, cai + tune, suspension, performance clutch etc.

LOL thats really funny centrifugal chargers not making power lol. The saleen is a pos supercharger with no upgrade option. You can't pass 14 psi.

I have the whipple and cant say a bad thing about it. The magnasun (spelling) is rated to 400HP max and is cheap and very reliable but not upgradeable in the future for more boost. Than get a new clutch and tires in the back and bigger brakes to have more stopping power....JMO J and welcome to the forum!

Really funny - especially since the world record is held on the centrifugal Procharger....

PS - the roush is a ROOTS not centrifigal...
