Does the 160 Degree Thermo even do anything?

I have seen the STS systems in 4 gen camaros. Its a lot of plumbing cause the turbo is mounted in the rear of the car by the tank. 5 grand is alittle over stated, but its not cheep

Does this "Supercharger" that you put in your air inlet hose near your air purifier look reliable? http://www.yourhotcar.com/prod/Super...rbonator/18105

The gains they show you are probably due to the weight your wallet loses.

True! But what about an electric supercharger?!?!??!?! It looks like the one I just mentioned but, heres the link :http://www.yourhotcar.com/prod/RAM/P..._System/18149#
It says 1 PSI of boost? Is that enough for me to have to buy a new driveshaft? I was thinking about getting the Magnaflow Exhaust Kit in addition.

lol one PSI .... ive posted this forumla so many times its redcioulus i think i need to bother a mod to sticky it but.....

with any car you gain about 7% of you N/a HP per pound of boost... meaning in the case of a 3.8 the equation goes 200/100 = 2.... 1% of the 3.8 power is 2 hp thusly 7% is 2*7= 14 so you gain 14 hp per pound of boost run on a 3.8 ... furthermore no... 14 horse power is not enough for you to need to change you driveshaft lol
