Default putting a supercharger on my xb

My dealer said I'd blow the engine if I put a supercharger on my xb, has anyone experienced this or should I not really worry about it.

Just be careful...dont try to over do it or you will end up throwing a rod, on a turbo setup, you really cant run more than 7 psi daily...i know of a couple people who are pushing around 10-12 psi on a s/c...the PE supercharger will give you the best results as far as HP increase but the blitz unit looks real sick under the hood...try doing a search on the chargers as there are many threads about this that explain the pros and cons of each supercharger, and help you decide which is best for you.
