Ok i've got a 91 305 Tpi camaro and not logn ago i rember seeing a single and twin tubo kit for my car. it wasn't a remot system either so does nebody know who else makes one? Or do u all think i could get better performance out of a supercharger for my application. Only mods so far are a K&N air filter and a flowmaster 80 series coming in soon. If i do either the tubo or supercharger will i need to get lower compression heads or will the stock one be ok for awhile? Thanks alot look foward to hearing your all opions.

So freshin up the motor first, and the stock heads will have a low compression ratio anyway so it will work but you won't get the most out of it with restrictive stock parts.

turbo installs will require custom headers and exhaust, lots of complicated oiling issues, and valving for the wategate and blowoff valve. Vortec and paxton sell bolt on supercharger kits that will work just fine and offer 100hp boosts. If you run say, 5psi boost you should be fine, but dont be shocked if you run that on a stock engine with miles and you start seeing blue smoke. new bearings and piston rings are gonna be a smart fix.
