superchargers for TBI??

Ok, I've been researching superchargers. And so far all the ones I've found say they're for TPI cars, will they work with TBI cars or are there any S/Cs that will work with TBI. Also, what kind of compression ratio should I run with 5-7 psi??

I'm not sure if there are any actual "TBI Kits", but I know that if you call ATI they will hook you up. There was a guy here on thirdgen that had a ProCharger on his TBI camaro. I don't remember his name but he would be a good guy to talk to, maybe someone else will know who I am talking about.

As far a compression I personally wouldn't run any more than 9.5:1, I think around 9:1 you should really be safe. Is this a stock short block? Cast Iron or Aluminum heads?

Thanks for the help. This will be on the 305 just rebuilt with forged internals. This also is several months if not more down the road, but I wanna be educated about it if and when I decide to do it.
