Think bigger injectors, larger MAF because it does not take much to peg-out the stock one, bigger fuel pump and fuel management system, new tune at the dyno to get it to run right. Don't get me wrong.......the supercharger can make some serious power (have ridden in a few boosted 8 and 9 second cars), but I also know the maintenance that goes along with them such as head-gaskets, busted rings, bent rods, holed pistons, e.t.c. Once you get use to the big pulley, you will find yourself putting the smaller pulley on it and spinning it harder. That is the reason I chose cubes and kept it naturally aspirated -- less headaches to deal with. I guess it comes down to a decision of what you expect from your car and what you are willing to afford and maintain. I know changing head gaskets can get old really fast on a daily driver (keep that in mind)</p></blockquote><p></p>
