supercharger questions

[George C]

thats kinda what i'm counting on though.

like i said before, i don't want it to push hard all the time and make tons of boost. i was thinking it was just hardly going to up the SOTP feel. again, i want to keep the motor safe.

Keeping a motor safe isn't just about the power its more along the lines of tune up oil changes fuel used motor temps and abuse

I will answer all three of your questions then add my own opinion.
1) Yes anything is possible a custom intake and brackets would need to be built for you application.
2) You will need a custom live tune, bc this setup has likely never been accomplished before. You would need larger aftermarket injectors made to fit the new intake manifold(unless the manifold was made to accept your stock injectors) as well as fuel rails to fit and more than likely a fuel pump to be on the safe side.
3) In order to make even low boost you would have to spin this SC pretty fast meaning a smaller pulley than it came with. As it more than likely came on a 3.8L and your truck has about 35% more displacement.
Now for my opinion
Don't waste your time/money. It will be such a headache making this work that its not worth it. For the cost of custom fabing it you could buy a budget turbo kit that would push the same low boost that you desire and would bolt on easy and have good resale value and potential for more power if you wanted down the road. Trick has offered kits for as little as 2000$ if my memory serves me right. You would spend about that or more just to get that SC on ur truck its really not worth it. Just keep it simple. Resell that SC to someone with a regular Granprix GT (easy top swap) and use the money to fund a turbo kit. Also a custom setup for this SC you have would likely be less reliable than a simple low boost turbo.
