What Do I Need To Supercharge

taylor96gt · November 3rd, 2006, 05:53 PM

i got a 96 gt. what would i have to do before i supercharged it?

sonicblue · November 3rd, 2006, 06:25 PM

well theres a bunch of things you can do.but at a minimum buy a complete kit and get a GOOD tune and you should be ok if you keep it under 450 rwhp. if you got the cash get forged internals and you can support more power

get a new supercharger so you get everything you need. my vortech kit had everything and is made for a stock block.

jerb43 · November 3rd, 2006, 07:42 PM

yep, me too, my vortech is made for a stock block too! A complete kit is a little pricey, BUT definetly worth it!!!

taylor96gt · November 4th, 2006, 06:26 PM

how much do u think forged internals will cost me?

sonicblue · November 4th, 2006, 10:58 PM

i think u can pick up a built shorth block for around 3k. if you can do it yourself its a lot cheaper but definitely not something you wanna try if you dont know what youre doin

i looked at the vortech superchargers with the intercoolers and they were around 4500 does that sound about right? and i already have the pi heads and intake manifold so should i get the supercharger built for the 99 gt?

You need a blower bracket for a 96-98, make sure you get a good tune. you are running 10:1 compression with the P.I heads.. Keep money put aside for a shortblock you'll be needing it...

would it b better if i just kept my stock npi heads and got them port and polished and then got some cams?

no keep your pi heads and when ever you needa new shortblock just drop the compression a little bit. a fully ported set of npi heads is barely gnna outflow a pair of stock pi heads. not worht it. have your pi heads ported with a 17cc dish piston and youll be at a great compression for a centrifugal blower
