Nothing wrong with Magnuson, solid company with good support. I am not crazy about their setup, though many are very happy with their superchargers.

Enjoy it.

I see that you voted for ProCharger, do you have one and if so, is it installed? What are your thoughts on it so far?

There seem to be so many various cons with each unit. As much as I want more power I just can't pull the trigger...one day I will hopefully do a LS swap because as stated before they can be tuned to no end. I'd rather have exactly what I want them settle for something that isn't perfect. The only drawback is the expense...but I love my Jeep so much that I would consider that payment when I get it paid off. Basically starting over again. That would probably be my best bet. The waiting will suck though.

Your SC quest has been interesting and informative, and has basically affirmed my thoughts to just wait.

Glad that it is helping someone out, even if it is helping NOT to buy forced induction.

I simply cannot justify the cost of an engine swap, though I would love either a Bruiser Cummins ISF or MoTech LS 5.3.
