It has less than 7500 miles on it, Might be close to 5,000 if I go back and check the milage. But Like I said would Love to get that, I know not always realistic. But I would help install it!

I agree, I have RIPP and love it, but the Magnuson SC looks prett sweet.

I like it too, but when are we likely to see this on the market, and of course, when will there be one for the 2011 Jeeps. Superchips has been promising a tune for the '11s for over two years, and still nothing.

Default Tvs 1320

I'm extremely interested in this kit. It's either this or the Prodigy Turbo for me. More info would be awesome. I'm about 2 weeks from being able to pull the trigger. When is this kit available for delivery and what is the boost pressure with the pulley provided? Also, what do I do if I add the Ripp headers...could the canned tune that comes with the blower handle that or would I need to be custom tuned? Obviously custom wouldn't hurt.

I have a 2 door Sahara that has been patiently waiting for a power adder and this thing has shown its pretty face at the perfect time!

So everyone knows...this is the same blower that is fitted from the factory to the 2009-current Audi S4 and that 3.0 direct injected V6 is good for 333 HP....stock.
