[QUOTE="vegascarnut, post: 1535976, member: 28273"] I cobbled together a Roush system built around a take-off supercharger from a 1 season ski boat. Some of the parts were purchased new from Roush, except for the blower, injectors, fuel rails, some pulleys, etc. which were just lightly used. Bought quite a few new parts I needed on eBay cheap. I'm running a stock exhaust, stock oil pump gears, 75mm pulley. If you have a good tune (JDM) don't crush your throttle from stoplights or hammer on/off the throttle a lot when wheeling, you shouldn't have to worry about the oil pump gears unless you're making stupid power, which I'm not. So far so good. I upgraded my transmission cooler recently, and also added water/methanol injection as a safeguard. Installed at 60k miles, which was a few months ago. Love it so far. If you are good with wrenches, and patient, don't be afraid to do it yourself. My total cost was under $5k, including plugs, tune, etc. [/QUOTE]
