Home Made Supercharger Install

Some guy bought a cheap supercharger and fabbed it to fit onto his Scooby. All in all I think he only spent a few hundred $. I didn't read everything, but it was definitely interesting.

There's only a video of the car starting. I'm ready to see this thing pull to see if it was even worth it!

He should build a nice looking scoop for it, I am not usually one for ascetics, but it is f-cking ugly with gaping square holes in the hood!!

I had a matching set of sigs like this at one point :)

er. it sounds cooler than it looks. because it looks horrid.
time to take it out + new hood.
plus who knows if he sized that supercharger correctly to his engine, would not be surprised to hear that it cracked the block.
