I thought seriously about fitting a supercharger in place of the plenum and inj housings, building a new blower manifold, etc..... When I got through doing an economic evaluation, the resultant Hp wasn't worth the cost on a low boost (5 psi) application. You could build the equivilant Hp for less money, normally aspirated. Unless you want to do it for the "trick factor", it's not worth it.

If you want to go for more power, such as what might be had with a high boost, purpose built engine, now you're spending really big bucks. At that level, I forgot about it and switched tracks onto the turbo train. We're now in the process of building the prototype, rear-mount, twin turbo kit for ZR-1's. Can be installed in your garage, with reasonable skills, will have all you need and not cost you anywhere near the cost of an "up-front" turbo system will and will generate more Hp than a supercharged LT5 pkg (which doesn't exist yet). WIth some foresight, you can order upgraded turbos so that you can use them for a high boost engine, should you decide to modify the engine later.

Good luck with your project & should you decide to accept that mission, please keep us posted on your progress.
