Default Supercharging D15?

hi guy, i have a D15B7 stock ej2, i want to gain a more power before i attempt the looks. i was just wondering if anyone knows of other superchargers that can pretty much PnP besides the jackson sc? and how would i fit it? do i need anything strengthened up?

sorry for all the Q's but i love the whine of a sc i have it in my head that they are easier all round. And i know about the mini me swap which i'm going to do this summer

thanks in advance and btw i'm from the UK just incase you name a place were i can get one and i'm not in the states. cheers

Sorry for the waste of thread but i did some more reaserch on a jrsc and i think im going to tc it, is that a good idea? i read somewhere a while ago that i would be able to run up to 6psi with everything stock. is that true?

PSI means nothing. A GT-35R at 6psi is very different than a mitsu 14b...

You can boost a b7, but the rods are the weak point. Some people can make 200whp depending on the setup.. probably more too, but that seems to be the "magic" number for some reason.. I wouldn't push that motor too much.

You'll want to tune the motor. I'd suggest you do more research and look into your options!

ah cheers, i should just do a mini me until i can get more cash together for a swap. so by the sounds of it im best of aiming for a whp and getting it tuned and adding new parts to meet that aim. chhers

imo u should forget the sc and go with a small turbo setup. either way u will need to tune it. a gt28rs will spool very quick and way more efficient than a sc.
