HI everyone.
I just ran across this article in the local paper about a 'new' supercharger that may be installable in a Catera. Anyone out there already looked into this?
Here's the link; http://www.procharger.com/SPORT_COMP..._compact.shtml

Lots of potential for discussion here.

It's been done before. Depends on how handy you are and how deep your pockets.

Wheel 2 Wheel powertrain sells rotrex units that are compact, quiet, and efficient.

Does anybody know the price of these things? I am willing to dedicate some time and effort to make this happen.
Thanks.

the Eaton M62 has been mounted to an Omega mv6 (check you tube) Problem is cost and someone willing to do it. A custom job indeed. If money were no option id go for an LS1 and 6 speed my gto friends seem to think the gto motor mounts could be altered to fit. But getting a used gto itself might be cheaper & much easier you can get 04's under 20 pretty easy
