Hi. I could like to get some information on that I have an 03 impala the 3.4l variant although. could it be a bad idea to supercharge it? how much do superchargers sell for? and where can I get them for my impala?

haha im asking the same thing. the afterward year, 04 05 impala ss came factory with a super charger, made something like 200 hp. its not the smartest thing in the world to do, but hey, its a nice looking car, its underrated for the most part, and all in all, you could get some big street cred if you destroyed a bunch of riced out honda riders. typically super chargers run around $2000 for a centrifugal, more for a roots screw type, but a centrifugal could work well in a front wheel drive engine. attempt for some power adders 1st, to offshoot the parasitic tendencies of the supercharger uses ungine power to make more power. keep a budget in mind, and you'll do good. keep me posted tho

Check out &lt,clubgp.com/newforum/default.asp?cookieCheck=697091234clubgp.com/newforum/default.asp?cookieCheck=697091234">clubgp.com/newforum/default.a. &gt,

Or &lt,subatomicdesign.com/gtp/forum/ClubGPFAQ.htmsubatomicdesign.com/gtp/forum/ClubGPFAQ.htm">subatomicdesign.com/gtp/forum. &gt,

These are both great Prix sites as they have had the supercharged 3.8L longer and therfore, may have information on 'em. Or you may be able to check the site out below and they may have some information on the Impala SS. Then, the 3800perf site should have extra to the parts.

Good luck.
