Everyone asks, Why supercharge it? Why not just buy the GT?
Have you seen what insurance can do to a person when the car has GT on it?!?!?!

State Farm will never know the difference bwaaa haa haa!

Well boys and girls, today's the day (i hope.
I called the service department this morning and asked what the schedule looked like for today. They plan on starting all installation this morning. I have an insider with digital camera in-hand! So I will keep as up to the min as possible.
Cross your fingers!

The next set of pictures display preparation of the engine for the supercharger.
