you have a MSD ignition and a supercharger and you dont know what a sensor is?

based on location, I'd say ECT, engine coolant temperature sensor. Youre gonna want that, cause even tho coolant flow uses a mechanical spring thermostat, that tells the ECU when to turn on the fan, so don't sit in traffic, if ya NEED to drive to a junkyard, take the long way and don't sit in traffic.

agreed, that is the coolant temp sensor, your car will run rich if it thinks that the engine is cold, so I would get that replaced or if you are up to the challenge replace it yourself, otherwise it might fu(k up the SC.

it is possible, but if your car is low on gas it will give you some trouble too.
