    usually a good idea. depends on year etc... also depends on auto or manual. most auto guys end up S/C because its easier on the tranny. welcome, PICS OR B& lol.

    Manual or auto?

    Depending on power level goals, internals may or may not be needed

    Eh...4T45E isn't a bad trans, just don't expect it to hold up AT ALL if you want any kind of big power out of it.

    You could get away with 240-250whp all day long on stock internals with limited life reduction of the trans

    I'm betting someone confused Block with Transmission.

    Supercharging isn't "better". But it'll be a lot easier and less expensive to do.
