extractors and free flowing exhaust- so it doesn't choke, maybe a shift kit with corvette servos to make the box shift better (im guessing its an auto). LSD when the single pegger dies if you intend on track or strip work.
that would be close to everything i would think (apart from the charger and kit itself)

Otherwise... look up the MANY threads regarding this question... I've even made a thread of all the differences... But in a nutshell... With what you've asked...
Tranny = same, however the supercharged models never came out in a manual AFAIK.
Diff = same
Engine = Lot's of little differences

To be honest your best options are
1) buy a car with a supercharger already in it
2) buy a l67 motor (that's a super 6, with either a m62 or a m90 eaton supercharger), and fit that (need a new exhaust system though, and a tune for your pcm... that aside every other thing bolted onto the engine should come with it)
3) buy a raptor kit

Im not looking to buy one brand new but rather 2nd hand and just wanted to no the spesifics in wat i actually need i.e charger intercooler, pullys, heads? stuff like that inc the small bits buy it all seprate to get a cheaper outcome.
