What do you wanna do? Go fast in a straight line or blast threw a turn that says 35 mph at 70 mph?

You really don't need to build for a super charger unless your gonna gonna go ***** deep and get a tvs.

Bump up the pulley size if you're worried about it. Mine had a 2.9" on it when I bought it and was worried too, so I went up to a Stage 2 (3.1") pulley and have been on that. I need to build my motor so I can pulley down further though. But there have been plenty of guys who have run a 2.9" on stock internals and been just fine.

But really, shocks/struts/springs is about 1/3 the price of a SC kit. Me personally, I'd go with the SC kit then upgrade the suspension later on.

I'd just go with the supercharger build. You'll have more fun with that then going slow around corners.
