    car seems slower / procharger help

    ok so here's the deal, i have a 1987 Trans am GTA. got new tires put on the other day which grip probably 10 times better than the ones i had on, yet she seems like she's doggin it. i've got the flowmaster cat back setup and magnaflow cat... but is there anything else i could bolt on etc to pick up some speed?

    also, i was exploring the procharger website, and noticed that they don't have a kit for an '87... this is based upon having the a/c compresser and alternator reversed from the '88 model which they have a kit for.... but anyways is anyone here familiar with the cheapest way to set a supercharger up for a L98?

    can you GET brackets from an '88 and just relocate the stuff?

    same way with all the LS1 stuff, once you start getting REALLY into it, you have to relocate the alternator and compressor and PS etc...
