Talking Just purchased a RIPP MODS SUPERCHARGER

Just purchased a RIPP MODS supercharger and getting it installed next week from them. I hope the power is worth the price of the whole kit hopefully you guys that have them already in an automatic can let me know about the break in process of the kit.

I might sell the xdi intake but hopefully i can find a way to mount it cause out of all intakes of many i have purchased for other vehicles the xdi by far has the best filtration, great flow performance, and a nice deep low grunt when you get on the gas!

Regarding power they post 245hp and i remember reading some where in this form of 254tq at the wheels. After I get it next week installed and broken in I plan to have it on a dyno to see what numbers im getting.

That'll be cool to see! I think stock numbers are around 180/200 at the wheels, no? Might have been Hypertech or Superchips where I saw the stock graph. So could be a 75hp/50tq gain roughly. Must be centrifugal...
