I assume your talking about a Jackson Racing setup rite?
I have one for sale, brand new with extras for $1800 if your interested just email...
I also have a supercharged B20b engine which is basically just like the LS engine but has 2L of displacement. I have had the setup for just over a year now and happily making 180hp and 165tq at 7.8 psi.
It is a nice setup for a daily driver and the torque is so much fun. If you decide to supercharge with the Jackson racing kit and eventually or instantly turn up the boost around 10psi by swapping to a CRV or MVM crank pulley then i suggest you invest in the LHT intercooler modification which will see you well above 200hp... with good tuning.
The M45 blower, although not as efficient as the M62 on a honda engine, does handle over spinning a little better if i am not mistaken. If i am wrong then just do the intercooler mod, because spinning the blower inefficiently will create heat. According to FLT racings calculators anything above 8.5-9psi requires spinning the blower to its max recommended rpm which is 15,000rpm, and is not recomended without the intercooler at least. But if you stay around 7-8psi, your blower will be happy, your engine will too and you can easily make the power that i am and if its not enough the LHT intercooler will net you another 30-40hp on top of what i am making if tuned right.
good luck... slugbug

I used to have a kickass JRSC LS setup. On stock boost, a good exhaust and standalone tuning you should make around 160 Whp. A MVM stepper should get you around 9 psi and about 180 WHP. I made 217, 175 with mine but I spent a terrible amount of money to get there. Now I run a Garrett 57 trim LOL

I agree with pickle, my stock JRSC with a 2.5 exhaust saw 165 whp.
I don't know what my MVM puts out on a dynojet but pickle's numbers sound close.
the extra torque is definitely nice.. but don't expect to be making super power out of it. 215 is about the max you can get to.
