Default Supercharger?

Hey guys,

I was hoping some of the much more knowledgeable guys here could lend me a hand. I am planning on a major modification, the supercharger. Specifically the a&a one(https://www.texas-speed.com/p-2710-a...arger-kit.aspx). I'm not going to pretend I know everything when it comes to these more indepth mods, so I was hoping someone would let me know if I would have any problems purchasing this kit. I have the whole exhaust system done, headers, xpipe, cats, and axle back. Also a new air intake. Is there anything else I'd have to look into getting in order for this kit to work? I don't want to destroy the engine so I wasn't trying to run a lot of boost. Please any input would be appreciated!

Thank you all!

Call A&A Corvette and talk to Josh or Andy (owner) and they will direct you on the proper kit to run for your goals. The V-3 Si kit with a 3.8 kit is a great kit. Depending on what you want to achieve, there are options and it is best to speak with them. They also have a CARB certified kit for smog states. You will get a lot of advice on this forum good or bad, but the best advice is from the people who designed the kit. They have great customer service!

No need for an intake. It comes with one. Headers and meth are next two mods after blower. Or tires
