Should I supercharge?

I'm wondering if I should supercharge my G? Any ideas on what u guys think? It has 110k and I'm wondering how much of a difference would the gas milage change and around how much money would i need to save up if I go with a vortech supercharger? at the end is it really worth it?

You really need to search. Google it for a few hours.

That's a lot of miles to try to go FI, but you never know. I would rebuild some internals.

Gas milage will take a hit... even more depending all on how heavy your foot is.

New?Used?google the price.... plus a tune.

The last question is really something you should be asking yourself.

Do a compression and leak down test and let us know the numbers first.

Bad tune is what broke your car.

FWIW, my car has 80K miles and it pulls great ( Vortech ).

OP, if you are asking this... it will NOT be worth it.
It doesn't matter, broken rings or ring lands is due to detonation not time being F/I.

$6.5K-$7K total cost for all new parts.

Plus you may need another clutch.
