Exclamation Help With Horse Power

I was just wondering about the best way to boost horse power in a non turbo 1987 gxl, I thought about supercharging it because no one makes a turbo conversion kit for the NA's.......If super charging can't be done, i would like my car pushing 300hp and am looking for suggestions on how i could do so
THANK YOU

Have you even seen a peripheral port engine? I doubt it, because if you did, yuou probably wouldn't make ignorant statements like this....

To the original poster, READ THE FAQ. It covers all of this. Read through the archives, especially a thread that is called "How to Make a Beefy N/A".
