Is 127,000 miles to many miles to supercharge?
What kind of problems can I run into from supercharging a high mileage b-series?

Do a compression and leakdown test if everything checks out your good to go. May want to do all your normal check up, plugs, wires,fuelfilter, timing belt, water pump and so on.

here comes the standard answer!
-compression and leakdown test....if they show that your engine is healthy, then go ahead
-after doing that, realize that superchargers are not the way to go and turbo that bitch...you wont regret it. I've ridden in a few supercharged GSRs (even one in a hatch) and none of them came close to the powerband and overall power of my turbo GSR

My Wagon has had a JRSC kit on it for 60K miles or so and she's at 120K now and runs great, burns no oil. Do it man. JRSC cars are great for around town.
