Supercharger

I am looking to supercharge my truck and wanted to ask around for good companies and prices and what not... and how much of a difference it would make. Please comment as much as possible.

It would add probably about 100plus HP and there was a supercharger thread that had a website to where you could go and buy them.. IT was posted probably about 3 or so pages back and was like 4.2 liter guys here you go' i believe. If u cant find it let me know

There's a Vortec SC that you can get, but I can't remember exactly where to get it. Garrett knows everything about the SC, so I'd wait on his reply. He actually has one.

I have one for sale too Joe. I can answer most all your questions about the Vortech setup. I am pretty sure I cant disclose pricing for what Im selling MINE for, but dont be shocked to see the supercharger run you 3200-3650, with upgrades not included. There is only one company that distributes a SC.

Their kit is bad. Not bad as in good, bad as in bad. With the work and patience of Derek from Trixters racing in Dallas, we were able to work all the bugs out, make 8 PSI, and kill some mustangs.

Just thought I'd ask in here, since this thread was already on the SC subject

I dont think I can say how much I am selling for on these boards. BUT, You can email me (its in my profile) and I can respond.

Some times things come up, and money is always a factor. The kit brand new was 3500...Im asking about 40% less than new. Less than 6K miles on the head unit. Everything included, but need to go over some things with the next owner.
