ok,

first how much work do you want to do??

i don't know if there is a bolt in kit made for a 4th gen lt1. i believe i have seen them for the ls1 but not for the lt1. I may be wrong tho. you must have been reading the multiple ammounts of threads for turbocharging the 3rd gen. if there is no kit for your car, do you want to do all that work?

now for the supercharger, there are kits, actuall dyno numbers and there is alot of people who has done it already that you can ask questions for your install.


if there is a kit for turbos, i would say turbos. but the supercharger has its merits as well.

later

There are turbo kits for LT-1's but they won't fit in third gens. If you want something pretty easy to get in get a supercharger kit.
