affordable supercharger options? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

LSA kit with SC is ~$4600 and you'll need a few items too (tune etc) so $5500 - $6000 would be a minimum... with you installing it ...(no heads or cam)...

Put it on the bottle for that money but your not going to get a blower or turbo for that money

Kid is dream'n for 1-3k. Get a tune, and NO and call it a day. Or just save up.

DJ A · 07-31-2015, 10:00 PM

this entire thread lol...OP if you really are serious about spending only up to $3k for FI, look into the On3 turbo system. It costs $2.5k but...you get what you pay for.

If you push it off a cliff, imagine all the 'free boost' flowing through the intake... Before impact... ;o)

i Dont wanna turbo, and supercharging is sounding expensive..

i guess I'm going to go with tint and rims day 1 and then intake and exhaust and shortly after cam heads piston rods,

then gears, etc

Gee · 08-03-2015, 05:42 AM

Yeah man. Cheap and Forced induction NEVER are cheap. Even if you get a kit cheap, the motor rebuild will be even more expensive. Do it right and youll be happy

just · 08-03-2015, 05:52 AM

don't do a single thing to it of you financed it

Biggest thing is figure out your budget instead of just throwing out parts and what you want to do.

You said 1K - 3K is your budget. You can get some of the parts, who's doing the labor? I'm assuming you are going to pay a shop to do all of this.

Get the car, save some $$ and then go from there.
