Seems like it is a re-branded Magnuson Supercharger. So there should be some reviews available if you google for Magnuson instead of AEV.

I am interested in a quiet supercharger that doesn't only provide high end torque. I don't have any experience with supercharging a Wrangler JK yet. However it looks like a lot of work:

Swapping a 2011 for a 2012 will add 85 HP and keep your warranty.

I have 2007 model year with 70,000 miles and a ton of self installed mods. A 2012+ model would delete my mods and add 85 hp for way more money than a supercharger. Not exactly what I am looking for. But thank you.

Strip that baby down put stock stuff back on and get a 12+ then slap the kit on that 3.6 then you will be in business. And not have a motor with 70k on it.

Maybe you have the time and money for this - or maybe you are just speaking out loud to see what might happen.

The Magnuson isn't even available for the 2012+ model year.

I would say that the supercharger will be great. Magnusson makes great products. I had an Eaton on my Integra and it hauled great

It's a rebranded magnuson. They should avalible not from AEV for much cheaper. Also there are much cheaper supercharger options out there like Ripp and Sprintex. They run about 3k, so alomst half the price. Get the Rpp 2 stage and you get more HP than magnuson and one hell of a ride!

It's supposed to be released in August or September of this year. Give you a couple of months to plan your build.

Why don't you stop and do your research Before you start talking on open forum. There are already threads on this.
