I'm current with A-Plan too and I'm thinking of going the blower route.
What sort of increase in premuim did everyone experience when they told them about the supercharger?

On my old monaro cv8 with a lot of extras, Car went from 450bhp to 550bhp, my premuim went from £530 to £600.

how old are you and where do you live? What mileage? I think mine was 710 last year and its nowhere near as modified as that!

Mines the Magnacharger 112. Walkinshaw Performance told me that it would make about 30% (although I don't think that it is that much) I told A Plan that I expected between 510 -530 bph. Wortec exhaust also fitted. No points though, I suppose that it makes a difference.
