what kind are you looking for?.. most people will recommend the MagnaCharger Radix kit, which i recommend. brand new your lookin at about $5100 for the un-polished version. i found mine used though for less.

I also recommend the Radix. It is a complete kit and customer support is pretty good, other than that Brian guy who works there Used ones are cheaper but you get what you pay for

thx fellas, most prices i see are bout 5 grand, i went to a local performance shop in my area and he priced me at 3,500 for a supercharger, he didnt say what brand it was but i figured that was expensive, but when i hear 5 grand, it actually doesnt sound too bad

Most likely a Powerdynde. If so, make sure you get the BD-11A head unit. It is built much better. They seem to be good for 15K miles before they need a rebuild. Some last much longer some not as long. And keep in mind with a centrifugal S/C, your not gonna feel the power until 3000+ rpm so it's not much help for towing. Search this forum, you'll find enough info to give you a headache but also make you an informed consumer. Make sure you buy the right style for what you want it to do. Read this...

Good luck with your quest!

Sorry but I already bought his old supercharger. Should be here within a few days. I would recommend anything from Magnuson. They have been very helpful over the phone.

If I had the money I would do a turbo no ? about it there very upgrade able which is good when you find you must have more which is always I would go with the Livernois 67mm turbo kit or 76 the or the sts but if I had my chosie it would be the Livernois 76mm no ? there alittle over 5,000. but you can put out over 15 psi

Dry Kill, if you are looking for a bolt on and forget about it supercharger system that will net you gains of 110-120 rwhp, I would suggest the Magna Charger Radix system. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. 805-642-8833
