Would it not make more sense to get a complete engine

from a wreck. The supercharger alone may not do the trick because you may need different ECU, pullies, sensors, air filters, intercooler, piping in and out of s/c and those little things can add up to bucks if you do it one piece at a time. It may just be easier and more available to get a 3.2L motor out of many different MBs and Chryslers starting next year. It's a much smoother better sounding engine. Sure my modified 2.3 is faster but not by much and it's not the best sounding engine. It's funny how loud it is on a dyno. It scares people to hear that thing rev to 6k with the hood open.
