I'm very close to ordering the Hessco supercharger does anyone have one installed. My main question is gas mileage does it really get better?

 

If I had the extra coin I'd buy the Hessco one. Very clean and easy looking install. Several other kits I've seen don't look near as neat once they are installed.

Do a search, but spell it Hesco (as I was about to click post, I reread this it's not to read in a jerky way, I just meant that many threads pop up and you'll have your pick of several good ones). There are actually a few good threads on it and a few board members with them. Looks like a really fun add on.

 

I Drove a customer with it felt like alot of power but still had some issues like stalling you may want to ask if the bugs are worked out before the install.
I really was inpressed with it .

 

I'm really interested in getting one, too- so hopefully there will be more members posting their likes/dislikes.

 

can someone fill me in what a supercharger does?

all i know about super chargers is that they go on muscle cars and they stick out the hood?

They pressurize the air going into the throttle body forcing more air in. more air=more power. same principle as a turbo except turbo is driven by exhaust. supercharger is belt driven

 

I see.... But I can see 1+K better spent mean while

 

TRY 5K+...HOLY SH!T THAT'S A LOT OF DOUGH FOR A 3.8L SC!!!
