People say that what doesn't kill you in this life
will make you stronger. I'm not sure if that is true
or not, but i do know one thing-You have to learn from
it and it has to make you better.......it has to.......

as of right now the only available intake manifold for the 2.4L is for an M45 supercharger. thats the one that is available through GM. it has a manifold designed for the 2.4L head. to use a supercharger from a GTP you would need to design a manifold, which isn't exactly easy (space and making sure everything lines up). another problem you'll encounter is the GM supercharger kit includes a reflash for the 2000+ 2.4L engines. You cannot reflash a pre-00 2.4L, so you would need some sort of tuning software to correct that. If you got lost reading through any of this, I would stop planning, ask more questions until you really understand what is or isn't possible

I was going to give you the same repsonse as the other two guys, but decided they had already done enough damage, and it was time for a real answer

^^^i wasn't trying to insult (sorry if i did) was just being lazy and was also unsure about the whole reflash thing and didn't wanna give any false info

^^^I was going to recommend the same two places for a charger. And cmunn summed it up pretty well. I'd go through GM before RSM in my personal opinion. Their blower, which I'm pretty sure is roots style, is much more reliable than RSM's centrifugal charger.



Blown.
