Could be....doesn't seem like they would make that obvious a mistake, though.

Edit:
Watch the hub as it slows down. I slows to a stop from ccw, then bumps cw at the end from the magnetic field.

Eh looks like there isn't anything "super" about that supercharger haha. Those little things that shoot out when he starts it up are the fingernails from all the Chinese workers that made it, guess they were nervous to :crazyeyes. It's an interesting idea though.

$200 from Performance Chip Tuning--they have a "dyno chart" on their website, too, if anyone is interested. If they give me a decal set to go with this I might have to do it. I mean, how much of a HP/torque increase is there for a decal that says "3.8L GTE Supercharger" on the side of my JK?
