    o..mine is factory supercharged with mace's 10psi pulley...higher boost pressure higher octane to prevent pinging.

    Thing like rockers and a decent exhaust system drop boost pressure, as they engine is breathing more efficiently. You can run more boost then the pulley size you have, depending on how much more, we might be able to get away with just a mail order tune to suit. Otherwise you'll need a intercooler for the job. Or if you were on a budget you could just run a smaller pulley and some octane booster for the track.

    Hope this helps

    Ah glad to hear it's all sorted now

    I've sent you a PM requesting your help with the supplied rocker bolts and torque setting etc, to get a better understanding as to why it may have broke.

    Did you get the heads ported or compression increased

    Hi Brad,

    " I've got a vs v6 stato now and I want to make it fast like my vn but I want to go the supercharger way just wondering if you do some sort of payment plane for them??"
    Which supercharger kit were you interested in? We have done lay buy type payment plans in the past.

    Please don't hesitate to ask if you have any more questions.
