Your compression ratio is to high right now for a supercharger and you will burn up the motor faster then you can say "**** under the hood" the super charged motors already have a compression ratio that does not need to use a high octane fuel. If you decide to put this on you will need to run a MUCH higher octane in the motor and you will not be capable of running it right. Im not sure if your ignition will set its self at that much of a diffrence. remember the higher the octane the slower the burn and therefore knock sensor will adujust the timing and im not sure what these are set at. you really need to look more into it.
im running on a blower on my N/A bottom end. the higher compression means i will make more power with less boost. so heres a scenario i can have a 8-1 compression motor and need 20lbs of boost to make 400hp, or i could use 9.5-1 compression and only need 10lbs of boost to get to 400hp. usually everyone who blows up an L67 will swap for a L36/26 bottom end.
