I liked the idea of the supercharger initially. I am not convinced that the OEM parts could handle the additional strain offroad.

The one offered by Predator looks tempting:

Boost your H3's performance with this Supercharger by Predator Motorsports! This baby provides up to 308HP, 315 ft/lbs of torque, and up to a 40% power gain. Can be installed in as little as 2 1/2 hours. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Diesel would be a great alternative. The litle jeep liberty comes with a diesel option. It has a great deal of torque for the trail (considering its size). </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Would have no problem with rear axle or transfer case, but the front axle could be a problem.
However, if you are going with a supercharger, figure in the price of a new axle. Warranty will be no good on driveline components; that's for sure.

That's nice, 308 claimed horsepower out of the 3.5L I5. Good luck on warranty claims. What's going to blow first, the motor or the front axle? Fun but could get real expensive .
