Thanks so much

I've gotten in way over my head more than once but it worked in the end, which just proves if I can do it, just about *anyone* can.

Say am I remembering right that you are Jenarae's bro?

I installed a supercharger on my car last winter. There's a picture of it in my garage album.

You may have heard people say that our cars have a four-cylinder, internal combustion engine. Each cylinder is just a tube in the engine that has a piston (a part that goes up and down) inside. Basically, the movement of the pistons is what makes the power that turns the wheels of the car.

To make the power, air and fuel get mixed together inside the cylinder above each piston. The spark plug ignites the air/fuel mixture, and that little explosion (combustion) drives down the piston--the force created is then transmitted to other parts of the car, and off you go.

The Blitz supercharger I have is a pretty complex part! It connects to the outside of the engine, and replaces one of the stock pieces. What it does is compress the air before it goes into the cylinders. More air means more fuel can be mixed with it, so the engine can do more work in each cycle of fuel burning. In other words it has more horsepower.

Summary: supercharger =

ahahahaha I thought he was wanting you to find out about it because HE wanted one! hmmm *could* that be the case?

Yes it was a lot of money and trouble, but I learned so much and the thing makes me happy, every day how can you put a price tag on that.

But then I do love cars and going fast (on the racetrack only) so for me it has been worth it.

Did you see the pink steering wheel kustom play has for sale? I think you said you like pink, what do you think of it?
