It's a Stillen kit. It's 50/50 whether the motor lives.

OP - compression test, leakdown test, oil analysis and take a look at the plugs. If all that is fine, boost away.

Yep. The OP has had multiple kits, and the Stillen was the one he kept?

OP - FrozenBoost heat exchanger and CSF radiator minimum. That kit has serious heat problems. Personally I'd get a bigger oil cooler as well. Make sure you've got a good local tuner as the canned Stillen map is an abortion.

I want a supercharger for the driveability. Im not looking for max power. I think that 415 whp will beat 99% of the cars on the road. I have a few friends with other kits and they continually have to adjust or fix the turbo kits. Seems that is the nature of the beast. The people I know with superchargers (Stillen and GTM) and it seems like the problems just dont occur as much. Everyone with the Stillen kit is happy with the reliability. The power level well.... thats another thing, but thats them. Again I dont car about maxing the power on the car.
