Pix of Radix install
 
This thing really put the sport back in SUV. The whine is the best perk. Everybody at magnacharger was very helpful and knowledgeable.

d/s



p/s



intercooler



crew; I'm on the right



emblem


and the best part; just a handful of leftover parts

What air intake are you running and where did you get the supercharged emblem?

its a slightly modified K&N FIPK



i had to make a Tallowood Air custom bracket to make the angle right. I'll box it in later. maybe. probably.



the emblem is from a land rover

How does it run? How different is the acceleration? I have a ligtning with a supercharger and I love the whine, I think I'd crap myself with excitement if my H2 ran like that!

I doubt its as quick as a Lightning, but its an entirely different creature than it was before.

It's faster all around. What bothered me before was the lack of passing power and that it seemed to have trouble cruising at 90, down in 3rd a lot.

Now it'll hold 100 easy. And plenty of power at to pass minivans.

Does the power come-in gradually or is it more peaky?
And I just have to ask, did you notice a big difference in mileage? I should clarify...how much less than the 10.2mpg do you get now?

power isn't peaky at all, very broad banded, just there when I want it..

Th mileage isn't supposed to go down,

more foot = less MPG

since i changed the fuel pump, I'm not sure how accurate the on-board calculator is, but according to it, i made 9.0 - 9.4 cruising at 90 on a 400 mile trip.

on my way home, I'll try to remember to calc my mileage by hand and have a better answer for you..
