type-r Need some advice on my 08 Si....

I just bought a 2008 Si 2dr...My first!!! Its pretty fast but of course adding some more power wouldn't hurt. I would like to install a Supercharger, Cold air intake, headers, and exhaust...My first question is, what brand super charger should I get? And do I need to do any other mods before installing the Super Charger?

Jackson Racing has a supercharger for the new Si, so you should go with that one. I'd put on a race header and exhaust before supercharging though, putting on a blower with the stock exhaust system won't do you much good.

Nothing bad, you just wouldn't get as much power as you would with a header and exhaust. If your gonna spend that much money on a supercharger, might as well go all out.

you'll cause a bottleneck. you'll be forcing more air into a smaller area and you won't see much of a gain. also you only have one header not two. get a nice 2.5" exhaust, an intake and header then supercharge and reflash. then do your suspension and tires.
