My buddy called them and they told him no superchargers for that car, only turbos. I had told him to call them after a search of CL. Did he just get a moron on the phone??

That's odd. I'd call back and ask to talk to either Mo or Marken.

Okay I let him know who to talk to. Is there any other company's doing them? He said when he talked to Swift yesterday they were looking at 30K for a full on twin turbo application, but this IS second hand information. I dont have a frame of reference to know if that sound about right, Id think at that price you could go Twin Supra swap and have a better setup and one that could really handle the power but im NO turbo expert Ive always stuck to nitrous for my quick boosts. Speaking of that anyone done a dry setup on the GS yet? (Im really have to stop being lazy and use the search button, eh?)

That's an odd statement. Superchargers are forced induction as well.
