Supercharger

[merc04]

I am new to the Marauder world. i would like to add a supercharger to mine. i found a stock 04 eaton supercharger off of a 11000 mile corba. it is only the charger.(no lower intake,cooler, etc.) its 400 dollars. what else would i need to make this set up work and would it even be worth it. What else can i do to add hp.

Welcome to the site! You can do better finding a more complete sc with intake plenum, intercooler, intercooler hose adapter, lower plenum, etc. If you're set on that, before you buy, go look at all the other components necessary to see if it's within your range/goal.

Here's a nice exploded view of the Eaton parts: http://www.proweldperformanceparts.co m/id29.html

Is anything else included on the supercharger (e.g. plenum, throttle cable bracket, upper pulley)? If so, $400 isn't a totally unreasonable price; typically they're in the range of $300 - $350.

Parts for an Eaton swap (everything needed to make it work) have been ranging from $3,000 to around $4,500, depending on what kind of deals you get or how much stuff you decide to buy new. If you have somebody else do the install, add another $500 to $1,000 and figure an additional $200 - $250 for a dyno tune.

Is it worth it? Supercharging will add between 150 - 200 rear wheel horsepower. Most bang for the buck you'll get for adding HP to your car.

If you want to stay N/A, but want to increase overall performance of the car:
Tune (X-Cal tuner from either Lidio or Dennis Reinhart)
4.10 gears
Underdrive pulleys
Cold air intake

I think we can thank Master Z for this one, but whatever.

For leading the way on the Eaton swap or for the URL http://www.proweldperformanceparts.co m/id29.html (http://www.proweldperformanceparts.co m/id29.html) ?

If the former, absolutely.

If the latter, that's from the ProWeld website...? :dunno:

I'm confused. :confused:
