I think cost and power are the biggest concerns with a supercharger set up. Supercharger upgrades cost atleast $3,000 to $4,000 on average to start with and the power upgrade levels are low, compared to a turbo install. The next concern is that if you want to upgrade the supercharger install, it will cost another $2,000. The last concern for me is fuel mileage. A lot of the factory nissan and toyota supercharged vehicles got 10-12 mpg.
Turbo setups to me are more cost effective all the way around. Plus they will get 20 mpg.

I think why some of us wanna go supercharged is to have aomething different. TT swaps and NA-T's are everywhere. That and i can only imagine how fun it will be driving a supercharged 2jz.

I definately get that, For me $3,00 for 100 hp increase is not a good trade off. That is why i did a 2jna-t swap in my Datsun 260z. And it cost me less than $300. Pop the hood and, Hey thats not supposed to be in there..

If someone could figure out a way to use a factory supercharger off another car and keep the cost down, i would say go for it. Or if you got a hell of a deal on one.

I had a powerdyne setup on my sc300, i think u need to remove the distributor on a non vvti as thats where the blower sits. I bought my whole setup on ebay for 700 with an emanage and all. Sold it two years later for a profit. It ran about 9lbs at redline with full exhaust and no intercooler.
