Where can I get a supercharger for my N/A

Theres at least 3 reasons why I wanna go with a supercharger.

1. the power is always there. You don't have to wait for a turbo to spool up once you get over a certain RPM.

2. they're easier to tune in and upgrade. all u have to do is change the size of the pulley. a smaller one gives u more boost.

3. like u said RedSupra87everyone's got a turbo. I like to be an individual. Why do u think I got a supra?

I'm guessing the supercharger will run about the same amount as an aftermarket turbo kit or less after you throw in all the extras for a turbo, like a timer, intercooler, ecm, piping and whatever else might be needed. I figure I could make my own brackets and throw a supercharger in where my AC pump is. If I need bigger injectors I already got em in my almost blown 7mgt. I don't think I'd have to do anything with the computer. Correct me if I'm wrong there. There's only one thing that'll change my mind. Does anyone have an idea how to get oil to my turbo? I'm sure I could figure out how to hook up the drainline, although it wouldn't run to the stock place on the block. I'm also not sure if my ecm's interchangable with the one I have. my 89(its realy a late 88 and that has made a diference at the parts stores) 7mg, engine's got a distributor and the spare motor , a 7mgt, has the cam position sensor with electronic ignition (no distribitor). I have computors for both. I was also told that the underdash wiring harnesses were different for my year. Are they interchangable if I wanna turbo my NA? that is the main reason I'm holding back. I hate wiring problems and I got a feeling this project would be a nightmare.
