Ya know, It's a little hard to see the supercharger on my MCS anyways. This might just get the message out to all those Camaro and Mustang drivers not to mess with me. It could make a great gift for MCS owners.

Interesting idea I gotta give it that. But I thinks that would only look 'good' on certain cars of the musle car era. And then it would be too cheesey 'cause it's fake.
Cheers,

I don't understand what everybody thinks is so funny? I though it looked great-so I ordered it and installed it according to the sellers instructions. Really made my MC go like stink. The increase in power was unbelievable. Unfortunately, at 120mph, the 3M tape gave out and my new supercharger was history.

Now....if you were to put two of them on side by side, THEN that would look cool. Twice the visual power. Having just one on would look too cheesey.

Oh and......just for chits and giggles, I think it would be worth a better laugh if someone photshopped that onto a MINI. Come on all you experts, let's see this. It's be like that stick-on decal advertisement/promo page that was in magazines when the MINI was first coming out.

darnit, I can't find the "transverse engine" option anywhere! What are you guys doing, getting 90 elbows for the scoop? This is definitely the coolest thing since low-friction muffler bearings!

If I drove a 15-year-old Ford Escort, or a Yugo or something like that, I'd seriously consider buying one of these!

How about one of those giant wind-up toy keys to go with it?
