I don't know what the "ss/sc upgrade" is, but dropping pulleys and getting larger injectors + a tune is a great start.

Well... then you can do a custom kit from OTTP you'll just have to find someone who can press the new hub on the blower

you can pay the stealership or install a stage kit yourself. You could intall the OTTP Stg. 1 kit yourself for under $500. like the saying goes...you gotta pay to play.

i suggest buying a pulley from smooth flow pulleysthat is made to fit your stock hub. you wont risk damaging your supercharger

n00b that is what they use... And you can't get another pulley on the stock hub. You need an interchangeable pulley system from smoothflow!
