no kidding..... 2 intakes? You are not anywhere near 10s yet. youre going to have to go forced induction of some kind, forge the entire bottom end of the motor, upgrade your fuel system, then there is suspension and whatnot.

no such thing as a level 6 supercharger. a supercharger is at whatever "level" its drive pulley is. you will need to do alot of work to get that thing moving.

for example, i know a guy that has a 3.8 mustang with a vortech on it. no intercooler or supporting mods, and he is still outrun by ls1 camaros. your car will be in pretty much the same boat.

that supercharger will not work with your car, they are both 3.8s but the 3.8 in the camaro is very different than the wbody engine.

from what ive heard they no longer produce SC's for your car, but you can find used kits on ebay. otherwise u may be able to find a turbo kit still, but not sure.
