My exact SoK setup. The new buyer will be VERY happy if it runs anything like my monster

PS: I agree. Put some meat under those rear fenders. 285/18s will fit with the right offsets & it needs it

Does anyone have an idea how much it would cost to source just the supercharger and related components but without any electronics or programming?

SoK, though not very active is still around. I spoke with them earlier this summer. I would imagine that they could still put a kit together (blower intake manifold pulleys).
Also, a few months ago I saw a SoK kit from a 1995 993 for sale, the ad is below.

993 supercharger kit 425hp
by Supercharging of Knoxville.
Includes Wipplecharger w/hardware, EFIsystems
ECU controller w/wiring harness, matched cylinders & pistons.
$6,000.00

Does that price include an intercooler as well? Someone on the 993 board just bought a used TPC blower w. intercooler, all piping, etc. for $5,500. TPC Racing sells the kit for $11,500.

I really enjoy the extra power with my TPC S/C. I have an early kit that does not incl an intercooler but does include everything else needed (new ECU, plumbing/ elec./etc). The substantial low end grunt makes the car fun to drive and easier to drive fast. P-owner installed it all at same time of re-build, LWF. cup clutch. I called TPC back when considering purchase and they said my car is likely putting out approx 300-320 bhp & lb ft.

That makes more sense. 425Hp with adding a supercharger sounds ambitious.

On the car in the ad they lowered the compression and they are using 8-9 lbs of boost. The TPC superchargers use stock pistions and I think around 3lbs of boost. Hence the bigger numbers from the SoK setup.
