O.K... Get your mind out of the gutters. Just dropped off $4000 to my mechanic and will have the Vortech V2 - S Trim installed next week. Is it too general to ask the average HP increase blowers give to a '96 GT?

Cool update us on how it turns out. Is this the type that requires "tapping the oil pan" as i have heard some people say, and if so what exactly does that mean?

It has to be $4000 for the kit + installation. I'm in process of getting quotes for the same thing....I don't even have the car yet, hehe...doing everything at once. Going 03 GT 5-speed and having the Vortech V2 SQ-trim installed at the same time.

Best quotes I've found so far...

$2999 + shipping, no tax for the full Supercharger kit from Superchargers4lesss.com.

$1200 for full kit installation & tuning from Black Magic Racing (a local speed shop). This includes any gauges I want installed as well.

So...I'm probably in the $4300-$4400 range for kit+ professional installation....however I'm going to try to get the dealership I buy the car from to give me a discount on installation and do it there. We'll see how that works out...I'm going to attempt using the "Give me a discount on supercharger kit installation and I'll buy this car from you" routine.

Its actually $5,000 total for the supercharger (polished) installed.. He just needed the $4000 to get all of the parts needed for the install. This also includes a dyno tune.. I kind of guessed about 320 RWHP also.. I'll let everyone know how it turns out!! I am also having subframe connectors intalled and upper and lower control arms at the same time..

I have no clue what this requires.. That's why I am having someone who knows what they are doing install it.. I am not real educated in the supercharger category other than I know it makes cars go really fast!
