    hahaha, no, can't hide it dude. Reason being they stick out like dogs balls and have a distinctive whine aswel. You'd have to have a shroud fabricated to "hide it" but if a nosey copper decides to ask you whats under it, you're done for. Not only that but having all the piping and FMIC (provided you use one) is a dead give-away aswel. You're better off waiting until you are off your P's ...........

    Or a car for that matter.

    I'm in the same boat as you, bloody P plate laws. I'd love to charge my SV6, but it's not worth it.

    You need to also factor in the price for insurance, which could possible be voided due to the fact your illegally driving the car...

    And if you get caught by the police, your ****ED!

    Yeah... even if you do manage to hide a charger... which I doubt is doable... and then you rear end say a nice new 7 series. Your insurance will be void and you will need to take out a mortgage to cover the repairs to the car.

    Just wait till you can do it legally... and then you don't have to douche around with trying to hide it.

    You can accept your uncles offer of the charger... and just hold onto it for the time.

    Shove it in the boot where the spare wheel would be put (when it's not on the rear axle of your car - your a teenager so there should be an empty space there). Nobody will find it there.

    Have a read on how superchargers are work.... They use the crank... That being the case the blower needs to be directly inline with the crank to make the belt work, to make the blower work.... Let this idea go dude.

    you could slightly hide it if u get a valley mounted supercharger and try to get the engine cover to fit back over it.
