The SC will provide added low end grunt, which the tranny can handle. The SC will serve to increase torque some, but more importantly, it will move it down in the rev range. The tranny doesn't much care where in the rev range the torque is produced - just how much.

In summary, a simple mild SC package would consist of the necessary pipings/tubings and an SC with the appropriate pulley/belts. You will also benefit from adding a CAI intake, headers, and exhaust to fully maximize the available boost. An upgraded ignition system may be beneficial but not necessary when running low boost.

A typical SC package would consist of the necessary pipings/tubings custom made for that particular car. Depending on how much PSI you want, this also may necessitate larger fuel injectors, ignition system for better sparks and timing retardation for detonation prevention, ECU upgrade, and intercooler, along with a smaller pulley. Most packaged SC will only run 3-5 PSI,thus making the above mentioned equipments unnecesary.
