Re: supercharger for B20/vtec (eg-owns you)
Jackson Racing and Hasport both make kits for around $2500-$3000. These supercharger that i mentioned are the root kind (they replace you intake manifold), or you can get what they call a "turbo on a stick". I think Comptech mankes one for b-series motors. Supercharging from what I hear has good and bad points though.
The Bad
-You cant intercool them unless you have LHT Performance do it ($$$)
-They are really affected by atmospheric pressure.
- Not as much of a HP gain as a turbo setup
The Good
-Produce nice torque
-You can cool them with water-methanol ( ) whick is a fun little addition to your car boosted or not.
Also, be very careful with the b20 setup. I've seen these go south very quick because of the thin cylined walls. I actually have a friend that had that happen to him. You would want to spend your money wisely and have the block sleeved to avoid that problem.
EDIT: You can intercool a non-root supercharger.
