I know I can't use my hotshot header w/ a turbo application...but what about with a S/C? The Trial/Blitz S/C is the way I will probably go instead of turbo.....

I dont see any reason why you cant. the header is on the exhaust side and the supercharger is on the intake side. If anything it will increase performance.

Yep it will work!! It might not be the best flowing header to use with the charger but it will work.

I would think its one of the best ones but hey, its just my opinion. I think Trial also came out with a header for the GT as well, but since you already have hotshot, it prolly is the best way to go for you....

Yes they just made a supercharger for the GT as well but it is still in testing. I can however tell you that Trials header is mucu better quality than the Hotshot and actually makes or is believed to make better numbers based on the design principles. Wait for the dynos but in all honesty either one will suffice because its really not going to make a huge difference I wouldnt think. Trials might make a little more whp but hey why spend another $700 or so when you dont have too. However I think Trial is offering their header in their kit that comes with the supercharger. So you might jus want to sell the Hotshot and get the Trial or jsut leave it on LOL its really up to you!
