In what order did you supercharge?

I am wanting to get s/c, cam and headers done in the future. In what order did you guys go if you went in stages? Better to go cam and headers then s/c, s/c and headers then cam or s/c then cam/headers. I have funds for s/c or cam/headers at the moment. Just wanted to get some opinions.

Incremental HP is expensive. Having a plan saves ALOT of $$

The real question is what are your goals with the car.

Will 550 RWHP be enough? 650? 750+??

Willing to buy a fuel system, axles, trailing arms, bushings, AFR\Boost gauges, wider wheels\tires, driveshaft, clutch\stall and on and on and on?


Figure out what your goal is and buy accordingly.


Or do like most of us, and keep seeking more power because enough is never enough




There is a reason aftermarket automotive is a multi billion dollar industry

600Rwhp should be enough. However, I do realize that after I add some hp that I am gonna want more. Only God knows where I will end up but the plan is staying stock bottom end.

I belive that a supercharger is safe to install on a healthy engine as long as you
install all of the supporting mods at the same time and run a safe amount of boost.

you will pay out the ass for double work and dyno tunes each and everytime...do the headers and catback, and catch can....then save up all your $$$$ you will save thousands and thousands...start buying good deals as they come thru..right now advire has some 1 day old 1400hp gforce axles for 1300..thats 600 under cost...deals on clutches come thru, you should start looking for a twin disk setup...but do blower cam kit, sc with smaller pulley{ blower cam will reduce boost allowing you to increase boost back}, dual fuel pump, twin disk clutch,axles and suspension to eliminate wheel hop....yes i know it is costly, but do you want to put a blower cam in without the blower? do you want to pay fo labor twice ...that is costly..good luck
