Is it a factory supercharger or aftermarket?
Does it come with a loom?
Does it come with injectors?
How many k's has it done?

That should get u started

You will need alot more than just the super charger. The only way to go is to buy a complete supercharged V6 engine and ecu and drop it in. There's alot more to these engines than meets the eye.

i say forget about buying the M90 on its own. Bit pricey anyways

tru that.. i was thinking ud need to forge the pistons and do other mods like that to allow greater combustion at a greater rate... mmm how much would a super charged engine that had such mods and a properly tuned ECU cost you reckon??

Currently, my vt does 0-100 in just under 10 seconds, how much difference will there be once i have a decent supercharged engine? also my car gives me about 550-600ks per tank, what will the consumption be running the supercharged one?

ps. i got a question? wheres the ECU found? in the engine itself? also how much boost would i get by tuning it? and how much does that cost..

I can't answer the first few questions but the ECU is found behind the passenger's side kick panel.

The panel to the left of where the feet of the passenger would be (hence the name kick panel)
