err, don't take this the wrong way but if your power goals are in the 300 range (even 300rwhp) I would probably end up just taking the money and spending it on engine work. I'm not trying to discourage you from a supercharger, just saying that you'll probably make more power then you think. You can probably get there for half the price of a S/C if all you're looking for is 300 N/A HP.
Then again, an L98 should be able to take quite a bit more then that, provided you can tune it. Keep in mind that people spray a 150 shot on L98s all the time, which means that even with a stock 245hp L98 you'd be near 400 at the flywheel.
