Embarrasment, Im not embarrased, thats me who is winning the auction, this supercharger is SWEET saves me a shitload from the comptech and costs less than my cold air intake...the plastic is very special made plastic which is stronger than forged metal. You guys are missing out..I have a max bid of $300, so anything over $300 you guys got it!

Hell...

Why don't you just use a hair blow dryer - it's pretty much the same thing, and a lot cheaper!

All that piece of shit is going to do is strain the alternator / battery.

You should buy a "tornado" to use with it.

High Bidder receives free neon sticker - your choice of MUGEN, NIZMO, MAZDASPEED or AMG (AMG requires proof of ownership of ford focus or dodge neon) - apply to rear window or top of windshield for atleast a 5% boost in wheel hp and 2-3% decrease in manhood!

Yeh, I'm going to yank my CT S/C out. With this new compact S/C design, there's room to do a TWIN S/C install.

The guy's feedback is a JOKE, almost all of his auctions are "private" , and did anyone notice that his second picture has nice little black boxes (microsoft Paint style) covering obvious non-fitting parts or open hoses, etc.?

I smell a big stinky pile of

this product is about as useful as the guy who tried to sell his neon with the words "my car is so fast you feel like you're traveling through time"...
