Electric Supercharger

hello......just lookin up superchargers and turbos....i heard a blown TA and was amazed and i want that for my car definetly. but if i dont get the real deal $4-5k supercharger or turbo, just wondering if this little contraption is worth the money and will do anything for me...will i hear the same thing i hear on a supercharger, or blower. or is this just a gay gimmick, dont want somethin tacky or retarded. i got a custom cold air intake on my car now, nothing covering it, just sits below my SD hood where its cut out at underneath. sounds pretty cool, loud whistle. so there's a supernatural electric supercharger for like $200 or more, worth it or crap? plus on ebay they got some, different maybe i dunno. can u guys help me out.!!? or is it just too gay to have. thanks brosss

Gay.

Retarded.

Scam.

No.


That good enough?

There's only one SC available for the 3400 at this point and it's from RSM. Retail is $4500 and service with RSM for most of the GA community has been mediocre so I'd be wary. It'll cost roughly 1-2K to install professionally. I wouldn't buy anything from mantapart.com period. Shitty service, horrible stock and ship times.

Honestly, head over to www.grandamgt.com and do a couple searches. All these topics have been covered in depth numerous times and you could learn a lot.
