Default enhanced engine performance

Im pretty much an average mech. thats twisted a few wrenches, but heres my question. Our 4.0 v-8s are fairly high comp. engines, not low comp. like they usually use for turbo and supercharged applications.It seems to me if there was a company such as JET, that had something to plug into the comp. that would advance timing andif you could raise fuel pressure say with an adj. pressure reg. wouldnt you notice a big gain in h.p. with a bfi and high flow cat. converter?Also does our cars have an aldl acces plug if you had a plug in module? I will go to JETs website to see if they offer one.

I did get on a website that was a JET dist. they said they could upgrade the stock comp. which you ship them fr $300.00 and you should expect a 16-18 h.p. gain.

There is a company in Austrailia that makes an Eaton M-90 supercharger kit for ~2500-$3000. Put on LS400 headers and a full 3" exhaust to complete. My plan was to run just 5lbs of boost, but with a nitrous kit. I think the engine can handle upwards of 10lbs of boost...

Edit: I know I have a 300, but I am looking for an RSP 400 to do this.
