got a 2002 z06 pretty much fully bolted on and it just isnt fast enough for me anymore. im thinking of supercharging but my heads are stock z06 heads upgraded by mti for an agressive cam. do i need to upgrade to different heads to safely run a supercharger or will stock heads at what i believe is 10.5:1 comp. ratio(correct me if im wrong) be suitable. im thinkin maybe runnin 8 psi by the way. also i was lookin at an 01 z06 with 700rwhp totally done up with d1sc procharger for 36000$ im not sure if i wanna buy it or not but i would sell my 02 if i do. i think. dilemma.

typically blower motors run lower compression ratios
