This is a serious question.
I just finished paying off the super charger for my Porsche at a cost of $5,000. I could get an entire SRT motor off ebay for that price from LKQ. Who could do this work for me?
No, you don't have to tear it down to install it... I just figured I would port the intakes and exhaust, install Schrick cams and bore the supercharger inlet / outlet before I plopped it in
Bare in mind, my application is MUCH easier than any street application because I don't have to worry about integrating any functioning accessories accept brake lights... The OEM computers are going in the trash and replaced with a MOTEC M600 with drive by wire.
I was lucky enough to find a SRT6 engine with the full wiring harness and all sensors, so I built a custom wiring loom with only the necessary sensors that the MOTEC system needs...
