Supercharged 2.4

Look at the Eaton M45 or M62. The M62 may be too big for a 1.9 but the M45 should do well depending on what your needs and goals are. The M45 new runs about $2700-2800 + pulleys. If you are balking at the price look at eBay. You may also want to look at an old thunderbird supercharger, with the pulleys adjusted properly you could probably get the CFM down into the right area for your engine… just keep in mind that it will be running the supercharger outside of its normal effeciency range. In any case custom brackets and pulleys are going to be needed.
I am planning on using a M62 for my 2.4L (someday). EFI is highly recommendable and Methol/water injection isn't a bad thing either. If you have a GT you may also want to consider a turbo.

I don't think there is much in the way of supercharger information here on the site but some turbo information (basically interchangeable in most aspects). Start with the search function... it is your friend. If you don't already know how forced induction works on an ICE then I suggest you start with google. There are a lot of good (free) sources of information on this subject.
