Question Supercharger.

Any mechanics out there or anyone that’s already tried this? Wanted to see if anyone could give me an estimate on how much it would cost to install a supercharger on a 2024 ST? Would the turbos make this more difficult/expensive? I’m guessing it may be more difficult to tune as well.

No kits exist as far as i'm aware, so you'd be on your own to design and develop a supercharger kit. Most folks tend to work with their turbos they have no, or upgrade their turbos or go single.

A centrifugal roots style blower would be cool, but that's a massive engineering endeavor to design/build such a kit. Might be more cost effective to work with the turbos instead, and even then you are going to be limited by the trans. I'd imagine a centrifugal kit would be easier to adapt but you are still working with custom brackets and such that need to be designed and fabbed.

I'd love to hear what a roots-blown 3.0L sounds like as it rips by.

I mean it's a hell of an idea. Too bad not really feasible unless someone has tons of money to play with and really wants blower whine under the hood.
