Supercharger?

I have a 1994 F150 FlareSide. I want to know if its worth it to find a supercharger and bolt it on? And if they are cheap and easy to install.

No, they are not cheap or easy when you factor in the FMU, ignition retart box, and intercooler you need to make it worthwhile. Simply bolting a supercharger on the stock motor will gain maybe 50hp and you'll need to run premium fuel. You could get that with a full exhaust system and a cam change, at a fraction of the price of the blower and additional pieces.

alright cool thanks. I have dual exaust, not true dual, but dual from cadakytic converter back. Mind you I'm 16 so im on a pretty tight budget. I thought the supercharger for my truck would be somewhat cheap cause it is 13 years old. i think i may buy a K&N air filter to put on and etc. thanks for your help!
