Just wanted to say how happy I am with the install of the Magna Charger.
Pictures are in the photo section of this site.
It is amazing the amount of power there is now. I took a small ride about 30 miles and the average mph was reading 16mph at the end of the frw portion. 14.5 by the time I got home after dealing with several long stop lights. I did reset the average reading before heading out for home from the shop. The drive is mostly level and or flat and I was driving about 65-70. I don't think the drive was long enough to really tell what kind of mileage I will be getting but I'm loving the power. I'm certain that if I keep my foot into it the gas mileage will suffer. There is no throttle lag when starting from a stop although the supercharger doesn't kick in until just below 2000rpm's so the instant throttle response I'm feeling may be a result of the extra horse power from getting rid of the stock fan and going to electric.
For those of you who have warned me of the danger of crossing muddy water with the electric fans, and thank you by the way, there is a cut off or bypass switch.
