Default WTB GS400 Supercharger-very serious buyer

Hey, I got a SC'd gs400 instead of modding mine cause I couldn't find the supercharger kit/ didn't have enough time. Its up to the mods what they want to do with this thread, I think it should stay open cause there are folks out there interested. Thanks all and a special thanks to TomLee for bringing the SC'd GS to my attention. I love CL, you guys are so helpfull

passnu2 (Mike) doesnt have a blower for sale...he also is in the market for one.
Mr. Johnson is your best bet, his is a full functioning GS400 SRT blower kit. Don't be surprised if the price is high...this is not something you can find easily.

In the general Classifieds is a guy selling a Rotrex blower. Rotrex's are small, and very efficient when it comes to building pressure. Koenigsegg CCXR uses two of them.

You would have to make your own mount and figure out the belt size. I would try and copy the SRT blower mount.

I'm all for this but where would I get the rest of the parts, like the bracket? the intercooler wouldn't be a problem I suppose but does rmm or srt sell the bracket etc? thanks for the help, I pm'd those guys.

There will be some fabrication involved as no one came out with a mass-produced bracket (unless SRT decided to start releasing theirs for sale outside of their kit.)

Contact SpeedAddict (Thomas). He has spent a lot of time, money and headaches on his SC setup. He will level with ya.

Coming from someone who supercharged their GS400 - be sure this is something you want to do. A lot of time and money for limited results. Your transmission won't like the added HP - so be ready to bounce off your rev-limiter everytime you go WOT...

The bracket RMM sells will only work with their supercharger. I have never dealt with SRT...

Good luck,
Jonny

when you say "limited" I'm looking for max 400 whp, I think 350+ is reasonable. the time may be an issue but i'm working as fast as I can so I should be ok.
just got hold of a procharger, c2 model, now its time to find the bracket/ pulleys and intercooler etc. any help woul be greatly appreciated.

I know... I'm in search of the brackets/ pulleys etc. the faster I can get the rest of the parts the more time I'll have to get everything right before I leave.

Hey... sounds like you've found a solution that you are working on. Though I have planned to remove it for quite a while I've actually still got the S/C on the car (though now the wife says she likes it ).

Let me know if your procharger solution doesn't work out.
