BOOM!!!
I wouldn't put a supercharger on a 2.8 for a couple reasons.
1. The SC costs around the same as a V8 crate motor and the crate motor will make more power without the SC
2. I never heard of a readily available SC kit for a 2.8
3. If your handy and mod past prob #2; You'll probably blow the bottom out of it in the first week.
For a cheaper power thrill to kill the six, get a universal EFI nitrous kit and set it to its highest hp setting. Then get the crate motor and the nitrous kit will still be usable (unless somehow a severe underhood fire develops in the carnage)
