Long story short, wet road+ dog= totaled car. Just got my insurance money, and in the market for a new ss, so I've been going back and fourth between putting back on the mods on had on re last car( exhuast,headers,Tb, intake, plug wires, tune, rims, tires ) or spending around the same amount and getting a supercharger , 102mm tb, jlt intake, tune. Leaning more towards the supercharger route beacuse not sure when I will ever have a lump sum of money to buy a $6k SC, please help in the process of making up my mind guys

Why not consider saving up a bit more and getting turbos? That's the route I'd go if I'd do it all over again

I would try to find a ZL1 like Jannetty said. There are deep deep discounts on 5th Gens right now.

Yea that was a option also , cheapiest around the area are around 38-40 , I could wait a little bit for a good deal , but don't know how long that would take and need a new vehicle shortly
