Marc, you would be the envy of the Porsche world, a front engine supercharged 911. Think of all the stares and strange looks your car would get. I don't see how you can not buy one, and its only $175.

I would like to know what material it is made of, probably plastic and cost very little to make. I honestly feel sorry for anyone that would put that on their car, they need some kind of mental help.

Damn sometimes I wish some of this idiotic stuff weren't so expensive so I could buy them and put them on my friends cars.

Haha! I'll bring the digital camera. I want a supercharged (or at least a taped on pile of plastic that somewhat resembles one person's idea of a supercharger install) 951!

I'm surprised he doesn't comment on what kind of speeds you could do before that thing flew off. Look out on the highway.
