I totally feel it! But we would all feel it more in a 3300 pound c-Klasse

well if you spent that much money on the supercharger and you really do not feel it, then you should bring it back or consider getting a x5is or a cayenne turbo then you will be doing 5 seconds flat.
then our 5000lbs+ MLs! There is no comparison now--My ML is faster then all oem ML430s and ML500s. That is 0-60 and especially 30-50 & 50-70. Though I don't have the natural torque of a 5.5 litre engine I can still hang with ML55s. I cannot hang with a Cayenne Turbo. Luckily I have only encountered base model and S versions. I respect the Turbo and he can come in my lane anytime!

RE: Anyone ever hear of this supercharger? If it is even one.
Cayenne Turbos are crap, I'd rather have a G55K anyday. As for this Supercharger (fan),...LOL what a crock!! It's like investing your life savings in real estate in Iran nowdays![:D]
it's more about pressure (boost) than flow, so the claim of 400CFM is meaningless. In fact this 'super charger' might actually cause a reduction in pressure / flow and hence reduce max power at WOT.

It will supercharge your life.
My car will now spin the tires in any gear. My gas mileage seems better. The wind noise from my roof rack has been virtually eliminated. My stereo is louder and clearer and I have lost two inches from my waist.

I should get one because this is exactly what I want at a low, low price of $120!
This is great--No "firm" website. Accepts No returns. Just try to find us with your warranty claim! It only really "works" at full WOT. What a disgrace. Surprised there are zero bids.
