Lower PSI??? Lower $$$

does anybody make a low PSI(like 2-3lbs boost) supercharger..... I just want a little more....but not huge amounts... I dont want to spend $4000 for a SuperCharger....I really want something tht will bolt on and not ned any internal engine stuff or major work....something to force air in......but not make me have to take apart my engine to do it.

I think Paxton makes a 4# unit. If you want anything less, try hooking up a leaf blower

Ditto on the powerdyne. You aren't paying for quality, but they are cheap and provide a mild power increase (nothing too serious).

Hey! I represent that comment! I made 391/392 (on a dynojet so I figure +60) on a completely stock long block with mine. Not bad for $2000 used. I also added injectors, pump, and custom tuning - still under $3k. It was about the same price as h/c but the install was super easy (except for the pump which I had installed at a shop). Definitely not worth the $4k new, though.

If you're interested in my system used, give me a PM, I've been drooling over the MTI big bore blocks recently and the powerdyne might be on the block pretty soon.
