    Advise on supercharger

    Need advise, if I should do it or not in installing a supercharger in my Z3 M44 (4cyl). My hesitation is the eng has 145K and some people said I shouldn't inst a blower in a high mileage eng. The wife said go for it!

    Best gain for $$$$ you can do...................

    ..If leary on high mileage then maybe replace the headgasket to be safe.
    Is this a Pro Charger unit?

    Find the problem first! Dont spend $$$$$ on parts you may not need.

    I have not abused the car or engine, but you don't

    think installing a blower to a car with 145K is not a bad idea except as precaution to R&R head gasket?...here is a portion of the article on the supercharge. "We use the world-renown Eaton supercharger for its superior quality, low noise levels, and superb output characteristics. In fact, we are the only company approved by Eaton to engineer and design aftermarket kits for many applications, of which our BMW kit is one. The "partnership" between Eaton and DowningAtlanta has produced some excellent kits thus far of which there are over 1,100 now in daily use around the world."
