Default 4.0 Supercharger. Where can i get one

Im looking to get some insane power out of my 4.0 I6 Grand cherokee (1994) where can i get a supercharger kit for it or what superchargers would work? Think i could find something out of an old muscle car at a junkyard?

The only kits i know of are http://jeepm62superchargerkit.blogspot.com/ but they are xj and tj so talk to him before you buy one.As far as taking one off something in the junkyard is going to be hard very few cars came factory with a blower and the aftermarket kind you won't see or will be way to big to run.

You mean to tell me your stock 190hp isn't enough?

We are in a similar boat.

The eaton m90 can be found on the pontiac gtp 3800. They are relatively cheap. To mount it to the jeep 4.0 intake this is the best option I have found and I am not sure it will even work.

This mount will need to be sent to a machine shop for finishing. You will still need to make a tensioner pulley.

Andrew

Yep they will sell a whole kit not just the base plate. Piecing together a kit can be had for less.

Here- This is a start.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-2-500-Aluminum-Sheet-Plate-12-x-12-6061-T651-/271194973441?hash=item3f247ae501
The adapters, tensioner, alignment and all the bolting together is about 25% of the project.
Tuning is anther 50%
Keeping it from blowing up the engine is the last 25%.

Actually that's not a bad start at all. A used m90 sourced from ebay or your local CL. Get a plate of aluminum and a handful of talent and that could work.

Since its a zj why not just v8 swap it or buy a v8 one?The 5.2 in them is a 318 you can stroke it over 400ci or bigger,Put some better heads on and cam you'll have a monster.

Only issue i can see in the future is the mounting because i have zero experience with superchargers haha. the idea right now is to order the M90 find out how to mount it and get all my supplies and then after i get new pistons and a performance cam. i will install her for good.

Default supercharger questions!

So i have decided on the M90 supercharger to put in my 94 Grand cherokee. I am making this thread for all questions i have but here are my 1st questions. 1. What injectors will i need or should i use?
2. i have never mounted a supercharger before and have NO idea what im doing so any help on that would be MUCH appreciated.
3. pretty much would like a list of parts i will need and what i will need to do to get my jeep prepared for a supercharger. Responses on here would be much appreciated but i would also like anybody with experience with this to message my FB because it can be hard for me to get on this alot. (Noah Howe)

No, don't do it and your threads asking the questions are annoying
