Superchargers

I have a 2004 4.0 SOHC 4x4 and I know there are plenum superchargers and block mount ones that are out there and available but I can not find one in searching online. Does anyone have a website they know of where I can find one?

Very nice install mikerider

IMO.......superchargers are better for conversion than turbo chargers if there is not a STOCK turbo charged version of your engine available for full swap

Super chargers run cooler and have predictable power curve.
Turbos do have a higher potential boost pressure but............unless you are building a motor from scratch to handle high boost pressure you will be running under 8psi boost so moot point.

Turbos are cheaper for factory to install which is why you see more stock turbos than super chargers.
Cost to add turbo or super chargers after the fact is about the same but turbo will require more of your time.

Eaton M90 is the super charger, it was made for GM cars, super charger "kit" allows you to install it on a Ranger.
