INTERCOOLED S/C OR NOT?

i am thinking about getting a supercharger in the future, but i was wondering if it is better to get the one with the intercooler? i know it'll give you more power but wouldn'r you have to change the front bumper so the intercooler gets the maximum air flow? plus i was wondering what people out there paid for a super charger, plus it's installation

Yes, you need an intercooler. Some air gets in (especially on the sedan), but for best results you would want to cut a hole in the existing bumper cover or buy an aftermarket one.

The complete Vortech kit can be had for $4300 or so plus about $700 installation plus around $500 for custom tuning.

are you talking about the vortech that stillen sells, in which you also have to get a different hood?

Stillen does not sell Vortech, Stillen sells Stillen and Vortech sells Vortech.
