No you're not. Or at least I wasn't. My supercharger setup could have safely made 300+ rwhp. It was $8000, installed. This included aftermarket engine internals (including rods, pistons, valving, lifters, cams, maybe some things I forgot) and went so far as to include a racing radiator. I no longer remember everything that was done to it, but I wanted to push 250rwhp in my daily driver, and based my build on a car that was pushing 300rwhp at the time, and went to 350rwhp before it sold. I skipped a few of the parts that car had that were focused on racing (like the vented hood) but had the strength to handle the power.To safely make that kind of power, you're looking at over $10K.
