    Lightbulb Electric supercharges are they a cheap mod?

    I have seen some electric supercharger on e-bay for about $350, was thinking off putting one on my VT Berlina.
    Does anyone have it on there car?

    Just wanted to know.
    •Anyone have any positive/negative info?
    •How good are they?
    •How well they work?
    •The cost to get installed?

    i think they are about 200-300 bucks but appartly thery only give you about 3-5kw MAX a k&n air filter would give u the same thing for 100.

    installation is realitly easy i think, ill try and dig up a thread i saw not long ago on the subject.
    We got rep back, yaaay!
