    Question Supercharged 8?

    Hi everyone,
    I've been looking for a new project for my 8 and I think I finally found one. This company claims to have a bolt on supercharger for the 8 series. adds almost 150hp. almost sounds too good to be true. I was wondering if any of you guys have experience with them, and if the engine can handle an extra 150hp at 25 years old. Let me know what you guys think.
    Heres the link.

    Ive seen the red 850csi in person down here in Tucson.
    Owner is thrilled about his supercharged beast!

    Yes. I have the system in my 8. Others here do too. I highly recommend the developer and his system.

    They call it the "850i SC" - not to be confused with the factory 850CSi.

    Great news everyone!! the starting price for the Supercharger 2 system starts at...a whopping $8500. expected. Although this would be a major project for and 8 series.

    $8500 is just a start to this very expensive and long journey, this kit will require additional tuning and many many more replacement and upgrade parts for your car itself.
    When it's all done however it is a very rewarding set up.

    The quoted price had Everything needed. I choose to upgrade my kit afterwards. John even provided gloves for the installation.My supercharged 8 is a brutish piece of work.

    Was your car dyno tuned? If not I would highly suggest checking your AFR and timing.
