Black- 383 Procharged & N20 Vert
50k should be fine. Keep the boost under 8# and make sure the tune is good.

how much does a good tune up cost when you add a supercharger. Are you able to tune it up with a power programer or something like that or does it need to be sent out.

Silver- '02 WS6 Procharged 9psi
i installed my procharger for 10psi and EPP (Bob) in Indiana tuned it for me. I am on 55,000 miles on the stock engine now (20,000 alone on the blower). Everything is still running perfect for me. But keep in mind, i dont redline 10psi it everywhere on the streets.

Mine has 40K on it and no problems whatsoever. As long as the tune is good, you're fine.
