Default Too many miles for a supercharger?

Is there there such a thing as having too many miles to put a supercharger in a S2000?

What about having an s2000 with 70-90,000 miles on it, is it going to have issues if I put a supercharger in it?

i really don't know much, but i don't see why it would have problems if you have been maintaining the engine properly.

I think it depends more on the condition of the engine then the mileage. Do a compression and leakdown test to check the condition of the engine. If those come out ok then assume you aren't blowing a lot of black smoke out the exhaust you should be ok.

i'd do compression, and if one is low, do a leak down. If its fine, i wouldnt worry about it, and go from there.
