Default Is this possible?

Hey fellas noob here to forced induction, but certainly not for hondas.
Quick background on my car
03 accord Coupe
25K miles
COMPLETELY stock
Auto

I have been thinking about supercharging this car. But i wanted to ask you experienced people with SC before i do it.

I am a daily driver and occasionally take it for long trips (4-5 hours long) will it be ok to put a SC? If so, is there one that will just be a bolt on without having to mod to much, i want to keep the car as stock as possible, trying to keep it as a sleeper. Looking to spend about 2500.

Is it possible, been searching but haven't found a 7th gen accord with SC.

thanks

A supercharger wont take much of the relieability away from the car as long as its properly tuned!!

Edit: I know people who have went several years with superchargers on there car and they drove ALL over east coast to car shows ect and never had a problem.

Anybody have any suggestions for a 7th gen? The accord forums i have been on pretty much suck with no info. Anybody know of a good shop somewhere in the LA county that they can recommend me too? Just curious, how much of a gain will i see?

turbo's are just as reliable as superchargers.. dont let anyone tell you differently.. they are generally more expensive and require more maintence.. however turbos have a definate power advantage over SC's.. but with a stock auto tranny your not going to want to go too extreme anywaz.... i dont think they last too long once you start poundin on them..

i didnt mean that either was more reliable than the other just saying superchargers are a little easier to be reliable.
