Realistic Cost of Cams vs. Supercharger
#21
They are if you have a master mechanic at your disposal who will do anything for just $150 lol. But I do have to help out quite a bit.

To those that went supercharger, what made you decide on which supercharger to go with. I'm surprised I don't see a whole lot of people running a centrifugal on here. Most go with positive displacement. Is it because of the low end power, the fit and finish? Like I said, this car will never see a drag strip and will still be a daily driver.
Also, for those that went with positive displacement, why did you pick the one you have? If I'm going to drop $6K on a blower, I want to do some research first.

$3500 after they found the parts themselves. You could pay some one $3000 to put the parts in a box for you. Some of these have a few extra dollars spent like a fancy tank or carbon intake. Of course you don't get those parts with the $6500 dollars kits you plastic tanks and intakes. These cars all make over 450rwhp and 450 rwt.

908ssp, I appreciate the info and it's certainly something to look into. I've been looking at prices for GT500 superchargers on ebay and they're not bad. Is there a place, other than a 500+ page thread, that I can find information on building the kit and the cost of the intake. I tried to read through the thread, but my head started hurting after about page three.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Check out S197forum (hopefully I can say that?). I got a <3500 mile P1 Procharger for $3100 shipped to my door, even came with 39# injectors, HT0s, & the programmer. Deals are out there...there's a stage 2 Procharger on there currently for $3200.

Again, this will be strictly a street/daily driver car, so screaming at 6000 RPM on a regular basis is not something I'm going to do. I just want a more responsive and quicker street car.

You may want to hang on alittle longer than october. Brenspeed usually has a black friday special on supercharger setups at the end of the year along with 1/2 price labor installs in Jan/Feb.

Good tip, thanks. By the way, where are you in WV? I'm from Parkersburg originally.
