wtf are you talking about. as opposed to those superchargers that don't make boost??

30 hp is quite a bit without either boosting or switching out the pistons for ones with higher compression. but with a lightweight flywheel, nice cams, 2.25" exhaust, and a hell of a tune, you might see a 30 hp increase.
