  • Hundred dollar supercharger

    First, my friend just got his camaro back from the shop. Hes got a 1995 z28 6speed with 204000 miles runs like a gem. Well, his cars wires somehow got loose and started the car, it drove itself into a pole. I saw it today and it looks as good as new.

    My main thought though was about these electric superchargers. Has anyone heard or know anything about them??? Thanks

    Yeah, they don't work. The only electric supercharger that works costs about 300-400 bucks, and it's only good for about 2 psi. You could spend a little more and have as much as a 250 shot of nitrous.

          Yeah, they make great leaf blowers. Other than that, not much good.
