Well, while the most HP increase would be from a turbo setup, most don't like to go with the custom fabrication to do it. Or, the prices are usually higher. As far as Superchargers go, which I will call 2nd most consistant HP gain, you can usually gain anywhere from 50-150% HP increase. The most popular it seems would be Vortec, Paxton, Kenne Bell, and my favorite ProCharger. The Ladies and gentlemen can share their favs with you for your best amount of help, but it really depends on what you really want from it. I want a supercharger thats easy bolt on (no fabrication) Quiet, dont have to tap into oil lines and comes with an aftercooler. The P-1SC is just all that. of course some like blower whine and some want name brand.
As far as giggle gas, you can see a good 75-100HP on a stock engine with little or no trouble. Of course when I say this I recommend the proper solenoids, purge valves, saftey cutoffs etc. this (being 3rd most powerful) isnt consistant cuz your engine cant breathe it all the time, but for a quick 2-3 hour bolt on and cheapest route, you have yourself a lil pick-me-up. Like I said, the folks (did i just say folks?) on here are more than happy to share their experiences. In a way, its like we all help you build your car... but we stick you with the bill :-)
Geez Im "long-winded" like another moderator here...its contagious.
