    Default Supercharging my vc..

    hey all

    ive got a VC commodore running a starfire engine.. now I want to supercharge it.. i know people will say "dont bother" etc.. but i want something unique.. so yeah

    ive been reading the SC12 is suited to smaller engines, so ill assume this is the supercharger of choice..

    what else is needed for it?

    Thanks

    i reckon it would be more economical to put a v6 in it, you would probably get a similar result

    i know this isnt what you want to hear

    i'd go for the sc14 if anything, but yeah, youd just need brackets etc, you might even find the 202 kits that CRS sell would fit right onto the starfire 4 ....

    hey man put a 3.8 in it and supercharge it like im about to do and it'll go like the clappers, think about it in a VN it goes alright, but same driveline in smaller car? just something to think about

    Yeah, ive been thinking about it in that perspective.. and also thinking of the ability to hide it from coppers.. because if i do put a v6 in i cannot afford an engineers cert, thats for sure..
