I don't think so. She sees me on it all the time and just refers to it as car porn.

Only regret I have is not buying the proper fuel system to start. I opted for the cheap way out, bap, and it was not enough.
So now I'm getting a squash double pump return style fuel system .
Just do it right the first time

It's gonna happen but not until I get a raise at the end of the year so in the mean time I am going with a TSP 231/236 cam. Matt at FSP will be doing my install and tune. It's not a blower specific cam but he recently had a car put down 715hp with it and his ECS kit

Well OP I think you got your answer of all ages on the supercharger. Go for it

11TexaSS · 05-31-2013, 05:07 PM

Yup! Ill be getting supercharged soon!!

I regret that I ran out of money and my wife's approval of any more mods at about the same time. Would have like to pull the motor and stroke it in addition to what I already have for the sake of safety and a little more power. To be honest though...I have more than enough power for the street and it runs like a champ almost 2 years since my last mod without any problems. Go for it...just figure out exactly what you want, save up and do all the engine stuff all at once. It's cheaper than paying a shop to take the same things apart and back together again 3 times...ie, supercharger, then cam, then stroker.

I am 65. I have put over 10,000 trouble free miles on since I got the supercharger. Love the whine from the cog drive I got from Jessica. I did have to put on 305 rear tires though. PS: I average over 19 MPG.

Am only getting 11.8 MPG they tell me i could do better if i stay out of boost but that not going to happen. LOL

No regrets! Going on 2 1/2 years with a Livernois built, cammed with Maggie. Over 14000 miles since build.

I was getting 25 mpg ave on highway driving, but since changing gears to 3:90 over the winter (which has really let the camaro jump) will see what new ave is.

My regret is buying the Maggie instead of a Procharger

Why? I don't mean to argue, or doubt your statement, I'm just curious.
