In two weeks, do you have all the parts? If not, I'm pretty sure you can toss "two weeks" out the window.

It's the installation of an OEM Cobra supercharger onto a Marauder. Will add approx 150 hp. Will cost around $4, 500 for the parts.

I will spend $5500 when all is said and done, but almost everything I bought is brand new, ie supercharger, intercooler and lower intake factory assembled, removed from a crate motor. It also includes extras like Musclemerc's cooling mod, catch can and fuel filter mod. Plus I got some other extras like a new TPS and IAC just for good measure. I would rather spend an extra $1000- 1500 for new components vs. taking a risk on used stuff and then spending a month diagnosing problems.

Still not a bad deal. Used parts can have issues, for sure. My first blower seized up on me and had to be replaced, but usually the used stuff is okay.

Once I decide to do something, I do it quickly. So waiting around for a good deal on used parts just isn't in my nature. I'm a "new" junkie.
PS How are you doing Rex????

Making good progress, but still have a ways to go. I see the doctor again next Friday; we'll see what's up after that.

I'm on the fence as to whether I should invest into the blower at this point, but seeing the lengthy parts list turns me off though...

Nice job. I'll have to do the same.
Some of the items I already did like the fuel pump and gauges. Not sure if I'll invest in an air/fuel guage or not at $300. Boost and trans temp already done. Installed boost guage early to shake my butt into doing this. Only went with 39lb injectors. I'll go up once I do a build on the block someday.

Dont cheap out now on a gauge. youve spent over $5,000. Get the A/F gauge. Save your motor.
My A/F gauge has saved me mine.
