Whats going to be the main use for your car?? Drag racing, or just fun on the street??

If you plan on using it mainly for the track I'd go with a centrifulgal S/C. If its gonna stick mainly to cruzin and such then go with a roots type S/C.

With centrifulgal S/C's I'm a fan of the procharger P-1SC, but any of the big 3 are good (Vortec, Paxton, ATI). For the roots, Kenny Belle seems to be the one to go with.

For your injectors if you're gonna add a S/C keep the 30#'s you're gonna need them.

Want to take 1 sec off your 1/4 mile time, you'll need to run probably 8-10lbs of boost, give or take, and get some slicks or DR's. With stock bottom end wouldn't go past 10-12 lbs of boost.

Surf the web there's tons of info on S/C's, you'll probably find more then you want to know.
