You should probably look through the forced induction section of the ORG. If you can't find what you are looking for there it probably doesn't exist.

Like beans said, you can get a quality SC from the ORG. but you have a recipe for disaster. Not sure if there is such thing as an 'inexpensive' SC. and an SC is only as reliable as the person tuning and maintaining it and its not like regular maintenance, they are a lot of things to factor in.

To sum it up, your gonna end up with
1. an iffy SC that your gonna have to pay to replace mediocre/worn parts
2. an iffy SC that your gonna have to pay for someone to tune (and most likely not at ur local regular shop)

I suggest you go to the Forced Induction section and read everything and save up for one. Cheaping out on a SC is not a good idea IMO

You wont find a "new" SCer for our cars, they arent available anymore.
You will either have to piece a kit together from new/used parts or buy a used kit. You could buy a kit from Matty and then buy a new blower from Vortech and that would technically be a new kit per say. But would be over 3k.
What exactly do you consider inexpensive?
A proper boosted setup usually isnt cheap, have to pay to play. If it were cheap, everyone would be boosted.
There is more hten just the parts to consider also, who is going to do the install? Do you plan on running a fixed tune or will you require some dyno tuning? These are all things they will add to the cost of the setup.

There is a Forced induction for sale section.

Depending on your setup, many have simply installed their SCers and just run them with little to no maintenance. My setup doesnt require too much, plugs now and then, and the regular oil changes and filter cleanings. I do monitor my AFRs and FP though.

I have a V1 kit forsale, the blower was recently rebuilt a few hundred miles ago. The only thing needed to finish the kit off would be the fuel set up, Fuel pump and regulator. Other than that the kit is 100% there.. pm me if interested.
