So i'm sure I will catch some heat on this but......I recently got a 2013 1SS in November. This is my first muscle car ever. So everything is so new to me. This November(2019) I am looking to get it cammed. Next year around November(2020) I am hoping to go supercharged. I'm not looking into drag etc I just want something to zip through town or on interstates let it eat from time to time. Really I just love the sound the speed that comes along with it is just extra. So what i'm asking is a couple things. 1) I read that I would need to get a blower cam. So if I get one then wait a year for the supercharger is that going to be ok? 2) If I buy the kits for each will they include everything that will need to be replaced? Or will there need to be extra parts purchased?

Yes, a blower cam will be fine on a car with out a supercharger. It won't give you the best power gains compared to other N/A cams but if the end game is a blower it's the best way to go. It would be wise to choose what type of supercharger you would like to run first. A cam for a roots style/positive displacement blower will be different then a centrifugal blower.

PM us or give us a call and we'll make sure you get everything you need. Our cam kits will include everything you need for install but we can go over everything and explain if you like. Same thing with the Superchargers. We handle the installs as well if you're willing to bring your car over. We've had some customers come from MO already.

Sounds awesome man. I will have to check around for sure looks like you guys are about 6 hours away. But could be a great road trip after having some work done. I know i was looking at TSP cam due to having a L99. Also i was wanting to go centrifugal blower. I appreciate the response for sure and will look back at you guys but like i said i'm not looking to do anything until Nov right now is just getting a plan together so I know how much to have saved before I really start looking.
