Default What first? Motor rebuild or SC?

Hey guys. I was wandering if I should rebuild my engine before I supercharge it. I will be running 11 psi on a stock enging if not.
Thanx ahead of time.

You should be ok on just 11 psi. I wouldn't rebuild yet if thats all you want to run.. I say go ahead and S/C it.

Cool thanx. I am also adding 4.10 gears and t-lok. Do you know about how much it is to get a dyno tune?

The 4.10 with forced induction are going to be a bit steep. If I change my gears after I go forced induction I am only going 3.55 or 3.73. Uh for me to get my tunes its 550 to put my car on the dyno and free tunes after that. If you just want to see how much power you are making it would probably only be a hundred or so.

11psi is going to be hard on a stock engine. Even turbo it would still be a lot of power for an internally stock engine. What kind of supercharger are you wanting to run? How many miles on the engine? Anything done to the car yet?
