16V Supercharger setup!

[optimus234@hotmail.com (Kevin S)]

Well what I have heard is the 16v engine already runs 10:1 compression, so 
you would have to lower that before putting the supercharger on it. I would 
love that g60 16v engine, have looked at it before and thought about it. It 
is somthing that not a lot of people will have either which is kinda nice to 
show off:D. How much do you think it would cost?? a good estimate in US 
dollars would be nice.


Thanks
