Start with a small pile of cash and a large bottle of Advil. :lol1:

Seriously do you mean build it yourself or what parts you need?

iv wondered this too. do you HAVE to have a blow-thru carb or can you run a regular with lower boost?

You don't have to have a blow through carb but you will have to use some type of carb enclosure to balance the pressure inside and outside of the carb. I know Paxton makes one for carb'ed supercharger applications. Im removing my set-up minus carb and CSU hat. It ain't fancy but with TrickFlow heads and cam and a 750 CSU blow-through running 8 psi of boost it made 498rwhp. Before removing it I was running 17 psi safely and I estimate the rwhp to be somewhere in the 575-600 range.

You can mod your carb., for it, and you need the carb enclosure as stated. Also with a blow thru carb, with under 10lbs you can get away without a intercooler(as the fuel acts as a cooling agent). You will need a calibrated boost sensitive regulator.

Try to find the carb enclosure It makes it a lot easier to get it working. And with the carb I wouldnt worry about a intercooler at all unless your running crazy boost like 40 +. Or you could buy boosteds carb if he's selling it. With the carb enclosure you need a big hood to clear it.
