I think the full kit cost $3k when it was still avail. That is way too much for me. I saw a freshly rebuild Paxton s/c blower (ie. the main ingredient to a supercharge job) go on Ebay for about $400 a while back.

SC or turbo conversion it looks like $600-1000 depending on how well you can fab stuff and invent your own solutions.

Superchargedrex (forum member) has the nelson / paxton setup on his NA FC and was trying to sell the car recently. He wanted something like $3-4k and it was pretty clean.

I also have the nelson kit,it was $3500.00 brand new from mariah motorsports.I recently contacted them before i purchased my used kit.They sound like they were interested in selling them again,but i guess scared because of first time when they had problems and didnt cover the warranty.Really theres not much to it just brackets and pulleys,about the hardest thing to fabricate.I have a buddy at work whos going to look at the main bracket for the S/C and see if he can duplicate it out of 1/2 inch steel plate.Ill let you know what he comes up with,Dave
