Supercharge a 2.4l
I've got a 2.4l sport 2008 and I'm looking to put a supercharger on it running stock boost for safest results looking for alittle bit more power not a ton but was wondering if I could leave the internals stock without hurting anything or having to rebuild the entire engine with new pistons and such

i mean it's a daily but every so often I like to take the Rpms up to about 5-6000 to get some speed but it's not like I'd beat the eff out of it I should be ok though right?

08 le5 will hold quite a bit less compared to the 06-07 models. 250 to the tire is the highest safest for 08-10 le5s
boost gauge: vacuum line plugged into the port on the intake manifold.
switched power and ground at gauge, sunroof fuse...there's several dozen writeups and installs

I mainly asked because ZZP gives the 4bar MAP with their SC kit and that little barb on top of the LSJ intake mani is where you're supposed put the 4bar at, with a vacuum tube. So I was thinking like ****, am I supposed to run a boost gauge off the brake booster?!? Well here this entire time I've been running the too small 4bar MAP in where the LSJ MAP goes... So I've got the barb free to run the boost gauge. But now I've got to figure out if I can securely keep the 4bar where its at, OR put a T in a vac line on the barb and run the boost gauge and 4Bar... Thoughts?

I will keep that in mind though! Will the 4bar do for now where the LSJ one is now??
Btw, read your thread about your build. Epic man! And congrats on your new life journey!

I could not answer that properly; I have no knowledge on the 4bar zzp has that you are talking about. is it part of the SC swap kit they offer?
there has to be a decent shop or individual local that is knowledgeable in HPT; head to the regional boards on here and do some digging. or get on the HPT forums and find someone local
thankyou, I find new little things I hate more and more about my car every day as it starts showing its age. but goddamn, I love that little turd in my garage.
And yes, I and very proud of where I am at in life and although I love my little one very much, it makes me happy that even at 4 months old, he is already showing signs of a gearhead in the making. God help us all, lol
