The 3.0L gives 240-250hp at the wheels and the supercharger gives similar numbers. Both cost around $3000-$4000. Install of a quaife LSD is also an important step as the stock diff may not be able to handle the power. That is another $1000. No turbochargers as of yet.

You might get 300HP at the wheels from the stock setup, but durability will be seriously compromised. 2000 SVT #674 - Check it out!
