Sure, you can get supercoupe M90's off ebay for 200 bux. Then you need brackets, pipes, intercooling, throttle body relocation, FMU or ECU, fuel pump, stronger clutch, and water injection wouldn't hurt.

But yes, you can get a supercharger unit for a couple hundred bux. You can even hook it up to your car, but making power last takes $$.

Its been done with no intercooler, stock TB location, and stock fuel. Is it safe? Probably not...but it has been done.

Sure it's been done. Hooking one up isn't hard - just fab a bracket, idler assembly, crank pulley, and adapter tubes and ur set. Just because it can be done says nothing about whether an NA 13B with a blowthrough roots running 7psi (meaning its intake temps are probably over 200 f) will still run in a year. I'm sure the stock clutch could last under non-drag race launches, but where's the fun in granny shifting?

I haven't supercharged my NA because I'm saving money for my ideal setup:

Powerdyne centrifugal compressor
FMIC
Vortech adjustable FMU
Walbro fuel pump
SAFC
Stronger clutch
Water injection

-all those mods are lower on my list or priorities than race tires on vert wheels, coilover suspension, full exhaust, light flywheel, power steering, and paying down my credit card balance.

Some value strength, I value sexy curves (cornering). It's all about what ur car means to u. Street racing and hook-it-up fabbing aren't for me.
