Everything I've read about this pretty much says they're the biggest gimmick ever.

Superchargers don't work on a 2 stroke...

not entirely true, dertroit diesels are 2 stroke engines and they run superchargers and turbos together, and look at the power those engines put out,with out superchargers and turbos they wouldnt make that kind of power.

The super charger they have is a nice item if you want to look cool, they do not add much power to the engine. They are on the right track though, they need to relocate the carb to be more effective. Or you could find an OS supercharged 4 stroker.

for the money you would drop into a super. invest in an OS 30VG and get the same effect, plus much easier to tune and WAY more reliable. As for hop ups the only Good upgrades are Aluminum diff cases and the heavy duty drive cups, dogbones, and the tuned pipe and motor saver. and to stop the dual disk brakes are a must.
