BlueAKSSS Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 You *MIGHT be able to get away with a supercharger setup for about $1000-1500 if you found an old Powerdyne Supercharger system. I had one I sold for $1300 just needed a tune and injectors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

built04SS Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 id like to know more about this kb turbo system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireman31 Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 If you add boost, you will need to beef up your stock trans at a very minimum. A bone stock trans will not handle boost for very long...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8 UR HMI Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 i blew my stock tranny on 8 lbs of boost after maybe 10 times of actually going into boost. if u cant afford to fix, dont mod. im not being a dick but its expensive to go go!! if ur looking for a kb turbo system and all the goodies plan on at least 2500. that MIGHT get u by with a tune, injectors, fuel pump and kit. and MAYBE some tranny beefing stuff.
