Default Ripp supercharger

Hi guys, new to the jeep community here, I have a 3.8 07 jk was looking to add sum power but also don't wanna throw my money away was looking through Facebook marketplace found a ripp 3.6 for a 2012 to 2014 jk, was wondering if I can somehow make it work with my 3.8.

Welcome to JK Forum. Those are entirely different engines.. not sure the bottom end of the 3.8 would hold up and frankly Centrifugal Superchargers make power at higher RPMs not down low in the RPM Range.

You are not going to make that RIPP for a 3.6L work on the 3.8L in my opinion. I'd even go so far as to say forced induction is just not a viable option for either of these engines. I have seen so many issues over the years.
