An aftermarket performance enhancement designed to increase the horsepower and torque of a specific General Motors engine is a bolt-on system that forces more air into the engine’s cylinders than it could draw naturally. This results in more efficient combustion and a significant power boost. These systems typically include the supercharger unit, intake manifold, fuel system upgrades, and other necessary components for installation on the engine.
Equipping a big-block engine with forced induction offers substantial improvements in vehicle performance. It provides enhanced acceleration, increased towing capacity, and improved overall engine efficiency. Historically, enthusiasts have sought these modifications to maximize the potential of their vehicles, particularly in applications such as drag racing, off-road adventures, and high-performance street cars. The availability of complete kits simplifies the process, ensuring compatibility and optimized performance.
