Did you try searching? I know there is a whole list of stuff needed etc floating around on ephatch.com.

From what I remember reading the gain/price and trouble didn't seem worth it. How much does an A2 head cost, plus the block mods needed to fit the head. When you can get boost for a little more than 3K or even go as far as to build the A3 with cams pistons and rods.

I've never done any of these but I know that Jackson Racing Superchargers has the answer I'm looking for. Just over 3 grand for the supercharger and Kpro and what seems like a pretty consistent 220 to 240 HP tuned at the wheels from what I have gathered.
