Hello BenSavage, congratulations on your purchase and welcome to ..... The Forum .......

I see you have met one of our more colorful characters .......

Yep, as @Mr.ac says, I also suggest you just drive your car for a spell while it's stock.

Why? Because, for most new to sporty car drivers, this car, right off the boat, will outperform your driving capabilities. So, the best way to enhance it's performance is to fine tune your driving skills.

After you have "mastered" driving it, you may wish to first change to some tires that better suit how you are driving the car (i.e. autoX, track, through twisties).

For a non modified car, I'd leave the tune alone ...... there ain't nutten wrong with it for average driving.

Will a supercharger mess it up..?? The tune? - most likely would benefit from a different tune. The car?? Any time you FI a car that wasn't designed to be forced fed, it puts an additional strain on the engine and drivetrain.

You getten ma drift ...... ?? ......
