Super charging a Daily Driver

Is super charging a 2012 Daily driver fine? Or is not not good for the car at all?

If yes, would a company close to cali ( as far as a 5-7 hour drive) contact me. I'm interested depending on the prices.

im sure it would be fine to super or turbo a dailey because neither are really in use until WOT. Only issue is that you like i have the 2012 LFX and not to much has been done with these cars yet. But if we are patient someone will start producing

Contact Jessika or Brian from the Super Charger Connection and ask about the RX system. Reliable and you will love the power. They can install it.

IPF and RX will do superchargers on the LFX from what I understand...

How do super chargers and turbos differ, which is safer and better.

I am looking at the IPF supercharger for my dd. I like their setup for many reasons and because for an extra $325 it comes with a power train warranty. :-)

I have a 2011 SS and went with Edelbrock. I'm not sure if they do anything for the 6. My point being is that I drive mine in the summer every day and have about 9000 miles on it and I can say that I have not had any problems with the car having a supercharger. Get ready to go through tires though. LOL

Just so you know, because you live in California, this will not be smog legal. No supercharger or turbocharger available now for the V6 has been CARB approved yet.
