[QUOTE="DavidHasselhoff, post: 10092602, member: 82970"] It's not really throwing money away. The only thing money would be lost on is the pulley and port job on the stock supercharger which can be easily had back by selling it if you want to ever upgrade to an aftermarket blower. You can still utilize whichever TB, CAI, Headers, etc. on any other setup you aim for so there's no money thrown away. Think about it. Used ported S/C alone go for $800. The port job itself is $600...the blowers alone go for $300-$400 used. So you're losing $2-300 dollars tops if you want to sell it. The snake bite blower would lose about the same anyway, but basically that money lost is the money you paid for all the fun you had with that setup for that time being..... I've done numerous research and have gone this route due to this reason. I will lose a negligible amount of money...i.e. $2-300 tops after having the setup for a year...Next summer I'll upgrade to an aftermarketblower and have every bolt on possible for the setup already on. So making 650+rwhp on the stock blower is a waste of money when you're spending the same amount of money you would to make the same amount of power with a different blower. In the end you don't lose much at all.... So how is this throwing money away? Just curious.... [/QUOTE]
