Upgrading a stage I S/C

[1CrazySledder]

I'm just curious here, but have a feeling by the end of this coming season, I'll be wanting more than 10lbs of boost, so they tell me.
Anyway, I would like to know what I will need to upgrade my Stage I to a stage II, if I this happens. Is it just the blower and the IC?

What is the norm for cost to do this?

You would end up with a "Stage 2a" supercharger kit essentially. You would need the larger supercharger and a larger fuel pump for sure. Call MPI directly to find out for sure.

Reading thier web site is also says PISTONS, which i wouldn't want to do.

Pistons are recommended, but not needed if you're willing to run good fuel or drop compression by adding head gaskets.

I wouldn't need the IC then? The one I have would work?

Stage 2a (up to 14 lbs boost) uses the same intercooler as the Stage 1 kit.

Kool. Thanks for the info. If ( when ) I decide to go a bit more, all I really need is the blower itself.

Thanks...
