I have one on mine, is only good for around 15bhp if dynos are to be believed. Combined with an e-bay €20 performance chip though it'll give another 25bhp*




* or maybe not

Somebody complained about the supercharger:

"not the one in picture sent ,4 blade not 6"

the number of blades on the fan isn't the issue here!

Yeah but I had to take that one off it was too wild.. I found it hard to control all the power through the turns especially as I was driving on lightweight slicks. (I'd removed 6mm of rubber from each tyre to save weight and increase grib - but the extra power was just too much!)

I was going so fast at one stage that my front wing just crumbled.. I wasn't going to risk damaging the 2 tone paint job - so I thought it safest to remove the xhaust..

What I love is the fellas who leave feedback 'works great!', Really? Does it though? You'd have to wonder about their intelligence.....
