But yeah, Id so love a supercharger in my xB. I just guess that 4500 or so dollars isn't worth another 30HP boost. : ( heheeh... but hey, if I'm craving for it, or if I ever have a mid-life crisis, i'll be here to ask for some questions! haha.

Garrett T20, talk to Lastlookcustoms if you are interested in the kit...the price varies on how you want your setup. I only used the manifold, turbo and I/C and the rest I pieced together myself.
