How much weight does a complete kit like a Whipple add?
Does your front sit lower after the install?
Do you notice the handling being more front heavy?
Definetly adds weight i want to say the 2 boxes had a combined weight of 150+lbs plus then couple gallons of coolant added. My fender gap front and rear was identical before the supercharger and you can see in the pic the front has almost no gap as compared to the rear after install.

my 315/35/17 toyo r888r has been hooking pretty well on the street with my odin supercharger kit on my 2018.
These are "track/autocross only" tires...no?
Did you ever get it to the strip with these tires?

They lasted one summer for me.
That sounds about right.

They're made for the track but they also dead hook from a dig on a 20" without a burnout above 70 degrees. I was taking high hp awd's from a dig that first summer. I couldn't take anything from a dig now. Thye're completely shot.

Mine lasted almost 3000 miles lol. Anything over 700-800whp and nothing short of a drag radial will hook. Hell my huge ass drag radials still break loose at 900whp.

Hey guys, so I'm looking at Supercharger kits. And I just want to know, how big of a difference does it make in the ride after they installed? How noticeable are they? Is the difference actually night and day ? Can you justify the price for them

Here, just click this... :) For like 9 grand you can have all the HP you will ever want!

LOL... talk about overkill.
Corn juice isn't readily available in my area but that pump gas tune would be way, way more than enough.

How long will a motor live tuned this way? I imagine that a bigger radiator and an oil cooler are requirements...

What are the upper limits for the MT82? Stock clutch wouldn't last...how about axles?

I don’t know about all you’d ever want. I’m pretty bored with 900whp and am about to build my spare motor for 1500. ‍Lol

I was around 620 last summer. They hook very well at that hp level on a 20" when they're fresh.

No doubt they’re one of the best options for a tire other than a drag radial.

havent gotten to the strip yet, i only recently got the supercharger and tune all squared away.

my plan is using them as an alternate set of tires as they will not last super long, and have a square stance set of wheels for regular driving, commutes, rain..etc.

i was just saying they hook well with good power; that was the current topic at hand. Not how long they last.

Well worth the fun. Just ask my aunts.



And I now run a big boy tire setup to get power to the ground. 325/50R15.

Correct. That’s a 60-130 roll-ish.
