supercharger hepl I am goi ng to buy a 4th gen camaro with a ls1 soon and was woundering what type of supercharger is the best to put on it really want one that takes place of the intake but what else would I have to do and do I have to take like the ac off the engine iv heard that some people have done that but don't know if I need to do it
The supercharger you're talking about that replaces the intake manifold is a positive displacement blower. The issue is that the cowl of the windsheild doesn't leave much room so you have to lower the engine, and trim the cowl among other things. No one sells an F-body specific kit either, so it means that you need to peice things together from other setups. The other down side is because of the limited space, you can't put a larger blower on there, and you don't have much room for an intercooler either.
Most guys with f-bodies who go the supercharger route usually go with a centrifugal blower, which looks similar to the cold side of a turbo charger. The popular one is a Procharger, which if you do some searching in this forum, many people have had really good luck with them, and there is quite a bit of help and support here for them.

^ what he said. The intake mounted ones are referred to as a roots style blower. Cobras have these, among many others. Procharger is the most popular. Im sure Bob from brutespeed and many others will chime in.

I wouldn't recommend buying a supercharger right after getting the car. Take some time. Read lots of threads on power adders. There are several companies that make supercharger and turbocharger kits that retain AC. There is a certain amount of mechanical ability required to install and maintain these systems. You can download their installation manuals and go through the steps and evaluate if you want to do the job or have it professionally installed.

U can pick up used D1SC/P1SC procharger kits on here between 2500-4000 for a complete kit and sometimes they even have the injectors you need with them. you def want a new fuel pump or even a twin pump setup and go have it tuned by a reputable shop. A tune alone is gonna run you $600+ unless you know how to tune yourself. Your gonna wanna set of gauges which is gonna run you at least $350. So
It can get expensive fast. But you'll always have the supercharger and more power is only a pulley away

I didn't realize where you were going with the baro question. Most all GM cars use the MAP to get its BARO reading before you start the engine.

Mike Norris is my tuner, which he specializes in turbo/supercharger and nitrous engines. Im taking my car back to him to get it re-tuned after i put the D1SC on, and he still told me to pick up a 2-bar map sensor and he told me to keep the MAF. But im not doing an SD tune.
To get an Edelbrock E force or Magna charger to work on your car is going to take quite a bit of work and quite a bit of money. Figure an easy $10,000 to pay someone else to do it for you.
Then like everyone else said, now you need to thoink about fuel supply, tuning, drivetrain upgrades and it's going to get expensive quick.
What is the appeal to the manifold mounted blowers? Is it just the apperance?
