well, if your going to blow it, i would honestly say, get a naturally aspirated motor, and enjoy that. Then work on getting the supercharger. cams, gears, ported and polished, pistons and crank, throttle body, programmer, headers, SS exhaust, electric fan, shift kit, forced induction.. the list goes on.
enjoy that, then when you get more money, you will be able to enjoy the supercharger when you finally do get it on.

i would do gears a nice 5 inch procomp lift with mickey thompson baja atz 35s with some nice new rims, also the relexxion cowl hood and go rhino steps. thats just me. if i wnated more power i would go N/A without forced induction first as the stock engine cannot handle mor ethan 5-7 lbs of boost so youll eventually want to built the motor anyways, so start with the stroker kit (check out krcperformance.com and arringtonengines.com) and heads/cams. then save for the forced induction system turbo/supercharger..

The only reason im nnot saving it is because im a college student and busted my a$$ for a long time to afford college and ended up getting a full ride so i have some extra coin now with nothing else i would want to spend it on : ). But How would the numbers compare to the turbo if i did the stroker kit, or heads cam and gears?

gears $1500 installed is the most i would ever pay
lift $1500
rims/tire package $2500
hood $450
whats the add up to? $5950... gears are the only thing i would have done.the lift is a weekend warrior project. ( i get free paint work so i dont have to pay for the hood being painted. so yeah that might be another $500 for paint, so scratch the hood and get sc programmer so you can get a little power and calibrate the tires and you still have an extra $100 to play with cause the programmer is only $379.00)
