Okay okay, I would never actually think about buying this, I'm just curious what you guys think this would do to the 3.2, since it's made specifically for the CL, it's not just a universal kit like the others ??? I'm imagining it would make the car run, well, like , but I might be wrong. It's fun to make fun of these, but I'm just sitting her wondering what it really would do, if anything. Obviously I'm bored if I'm wondering about "superchargers". Entertain me.

Save some money, take the motor out of your vaccum cleaner and get some pvc pipe.

Seriously though, thats the stupidest thing I've ever seen and can't believe people actually buy this thing.

It will likely cause you to waste about $160 and lead to you being pissed.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY.

Take that same money and buy some spacers and new spark plugs. Much better deal.

I could make a much better electric supercharger from my Cuisinart DLC-11 food processor motor anyway. That freagen thing is 1100 watts! I'm guessing that's good for at least 125 HP.

The only thing it'll do is drain your bank account. It's garbage.
