Default Newbie Looking into Supercharging

Ok, so with my tax return money, and a little loan i might take out i was looking into forced induction, i.e. supercharger, im not to familiar, so i was hoping to get some insight, i know i want to do it, i was wondering what kind of setups everyone is doing, i am cammed, was not looking to do heads, also what kind of price range am i looking at installed? I put down 384 on a mustang dyno cammed only, what kind of gains, i know these questions are probably asked all the time, but im looking to do this directly after i get my tax return, any help would be appreciated.

don't take out a loan to buy car parts you don't need. you'll regret it. It's immensely more expensive than you think it will be.
you will also need: gauges, rear end, built trans, your clutch will hold for a while but not forever, tuning, fuel system, built motor when the stock one blows.... it never stops.

My buddy has an ss that is procharged making near 500 rwhp on stock 346 upgraded clutch fuel pump, injectors, his rear is stock, and it seems to be handling just fine?

if he puts some tires on it he'll eventually break the rear end. you can go for a while on the stock motor, but eventually you're probably going to crank up the boost and blow it.
I think there is a sticky in this forum "the price of forced induction" or something along those lines, read it.
