From the looks of the mounting, there is absolutely no way in hell that will fit under a Contour hood! Are you blind man! Just joshin you, but seriously...

...and to top it all off...
It's not even a new S/C kit. It's been out for years.
Still doesn't remotely fit though... {search is your friend; be nice to him and see him once and a while}

I have the ability to make an accepting intake manifold pulley`s and everything else to do a supercharger setup. Its just the engine management that would have to be taken care of. They design rear entry throttle plates too for the twin screws. I think you could get it to work at a lower profile. Cost would probably be upwards of 5-6 k with engine management though.

So for more or the same the price of the ADC turbo kit, you'd get less. Sounds good to me.

Well i mean thats just the way it works out. Youd have to make a new engine crank pully which would be a couple hundred. a supercharger which would be a hundred. A special intake manifold that was low profile. which would be like 600-700. An intercooler another 3-400. The twin screw supers are 2000 dollars. The cheapest computer youd want for the job is the 8086 by microtech and its 1200. Were at 4000 dollars for just the base cost of parts with no tuning and me not making a dime. A kit like this could probably produce 400 whp pretty easily though and 400 in torque. Itd just be an up hill battle with money. It has advantages over turbo charging as well though. No turbo charger I know will supply maximium boost by 2000 rpms and hold it without huge efficiency loss all the way to 7500. It would also show up big in throttle response over a turbo. Which is important to some people.

A chip will cut about $700 off your estimate.
