Cheap and forced induction don't go together. Even if you get a cheap kit, the fuel/clutch/axles/etc that go along with one isn't cheap.

Boost and cheap don't go together.

What's your budget?

I can get you in to one highest value per dollar spent.

We fit supercharger system to already modded cars so your not buying anything you can't use.

Well im just shopping and looking at the lowest prices.. browsing.

Im not looking for a crazy amount of boost. Just a little oomph on a 1/4 mile that forced induction brings.

Not 100% sure,but I think it's the ECS supercharger kit that is the cheapest that I'm aware of.

I bought my TVS2300 for really cheap...

Sometimes, if you scan the classifieds, you'll find some pretty good deals. Mine was a brand new unit, never installed. Guy decided to sell it. I got it for $5500 shipped to my door

Whatever you do, do not choose cheapest over most reputable and reliable as far as shops supplying the kit go.

It is always worth paying a little extra for fully tried and tested product. It will save you both money and headaches in the long run

Centrifugal << Top Mount <<< Turbos

An entry-level centri will be the easiest on the wallet.

My total cost counting S/C was $9120 with 1000# axles, Roto-Fab CAI, Elite catch can, Spohn rear trailing arms, rear toe links, rear lower control arms, ZL1 fuel pump, Jannetty fuel rail upgrade, 72# injectors and dyno tune.

That was only parts except the dyno tune. My buddy and I installed everything in my garage. Before selling parts cost was $9520. I sold parts $400.
