Red face OT: Selling my supercharger on ebay

Yes, it's true, I am selling the supercharger for my car. The supercharger is pushing my car to the limit. I gained a good 100hp from this little baby, and I'm hoping someone else could have a better time with it than I did. The kit delivers 240CFM!! Don't lose out. I started the bid with $10, and hopefully I'll make atleast some money off it.

Let's start the bidding on the most powerful supercharger!

And so far nine idiots have bid on this. Hmm, I can pick these up at any marine supply store for around $20. Maybe I'll get into the biz. <img src="graemlins/r.gif" border="0" alt="[king]" />

amaf,
I apologize for ever ripping on you in the past...
You are a never ending source of amusement for rennlist.
I hope you stick around for a while, because every time I read one of your posts, I laugh until it hurts...
Thanks for having thick enough skin to keep coming back...

Hats off to Amaf! He made a few dubious posts and took a lot of heat, but has stepped up and laughed and gone along with it, good job!

Ok everyone after DonJuan.......full steam ahead! <img src="graemlins/jumper.gif" border="0" alt="[jumper]" />

I thought it was twin turbos your car had? or did it have both a turbo and a supercharger? maybe you could sell your engine to a boxster owner who needs more power and he could drop that powerplant in there! <img src="graemlins/roflmao.gif" border="0" alt="[hiha]" />

the twin electric superchargers were feeding the twin turbos to eliminate turbo lag, but now that he has the flux capacitor turbo lag isnt a problem. you can just timetravel from the time when your boost kicks in to the time you were standing still and have instant boost!

opps btw i was laughing so hard about the knuckles i forgot my original reply.....if your selling "your" supercharger, why is it you have four of them on the auction block? dont tell me you have twin turbos w/ two "superchargers" pumping air into each spool? hey you should make a cold air induction system, put a block of ice in the airbox......but you'd probably forget the recipe

For a while there, I was worried that amaf had left the building. Stop laughing you guys, amaf will need those plastic knuckles when the auction is over and the buyer receives the goods.

But, seriously, do you think I could attache that turbocharger to the vent on my Ktel stove-top hot-dog cooker? Now that would be something.

Install a warp core instead, that will give you real power!

I was thinkin' I'd slam that bad boy on my street cycle and boost her up to do the 1/4 in 2.2s flat <img src="graemlins/bigok.gif" border="0" alt="[thumbsup]" />

Unfortunately, I can't afford the high shipping cost <img src="graemlins/cussing.gif" border="0" alt="[grrrrrrr]" />
