If you monitor your air intake temps I would really be curious to know what changes and or effect you are seeing.
Like I stated before with 2000 lbs in tow...4.56 gears...Magnuson Supercharger...it can still leave most folks sitting at the red light...pulled at 70 mph on I-35 in Overdrive...no problems at all....

There is a nice gap between all three, I completely disabled the tranny cooler on the AC Condenser...

Default Supercharger Info

Does anyone have anymore info on the Magnuson Superchager for the JK? Is regearing required still if your jeep has been lifted and your running larger then stock tires? Can you run this supercharger with a CAI or is the stock air box recommend?

Regearing should be considered for ANY Jeep with larger than OEM tires.

A K&N can be retrofitted to the Magnuson system.

Mike from Magnuson Superchargers swung by to say hello and discuss how all our installations are going. Love manufacturers that listen to installer feedback! Pictured is the Magnuson Corporate JK with serial #1 supercharger!

How much do you guys charge for the install and tuning, including parts and labour? I got quoted a price today up here in Canada just wondering how it compares.
