Get a vortech not a powerdyne, i have heard they are just cheap and dont last as long.
Go the vortech V1 T-trim, they go awesome, and sound awesome.
Guy i know has one on his VY SV8, its just got diff gears, lifters, valve springs and a few other things, no cam or anything, just running the V1 at 9 or 10 psi with a cooler and he is making 370RWKW

as ive said earlier ive seen cam only car absolutly smash cheap supercharged setups.
a decent charged set up will cost 10k for somthing to make 350 reliably.

trust me ive seen many guys do what your thinking only to spend another 10-20k fixing the mistake.

but then again its your choice just hope your pockets are as big as your ideas.
