Basic supercharger 'kits' are intended to work well on a stock car including C6.
Kits come with all you need.
The basic A&A kit will add alot of reliable power.
How much power idunno. Alot.
From there you can add exhaust, etc.

Lots of superchargers on otherwise stock cars without any issue. Obviously putting more power into the motor can have adverse effects to the life of the engine, but a stock engine can break too.

I have the A&A Supercharger on my stock C6 LS3 and it's putting out over 525 RWHP with a mild tune.
