What Special Parts Needed for Adding a Supercharger
After putting 500 miles on my new-to-me Backdraft, I've decided it's way too slow for my liking, despite a few people on here trying to tell me I would think otherwise...
Anyways, I'm thinking about throwing on a supercharger while the car is locked away for this Colorado winter. My car has a 5.0 Coyote in it. What special parts do I need to retrofit a roots or twin-screw blower onto the car? Or has someone added a centrifugal supercharger to a 5.0 Backdraft that could also speak to that? I like the look of the top mount better but like the idea of mid/high range power more so with the centrifugal.
Are y'all mounting the heat exchanger behind the radiator or in front? I know Vintage and some other companies have put superchargers on several of their cars, but they're asking a ridiculous amount of money for them. I can piece together a good kit for less than $4500 including injectors, intake and the handheld tuner but want to make sure I'm not missing anything special needed to retrofit.
