Just wanted to let everyone know, I finally got my MagnaCharger installed. unfortunatley when I ordered I had 35 tires and now have 37 tires, which makes my speedometer wrong and my gas milage off.
But Man it runs good. Never thought the Hummer could have so much acceleration. Worried that with that much power, I might break something when offroading.
In general I am very pleased with my new acceleration. It sure made the Hummer more fun to drive!!

Great job Jerry, Enjoy it. If you still want to free up some pony's get rid of the stock fan and go with flex-a-lite electrics just make sure the installer installs the in cabin cut off switch for. That way when you have a deep muddy crossing to deal with. Just turn the fans off for a couple of minutes while you forge the obstacle then turn them back on. They work great. They are more efficient then the stock fan and they free up horse power and torque.
superbeast:
if you get a supercharger yes your factory warranty is gone but as Jerry has pointed out for $200 you get one from MagnaCharger also if a dealer does the install for you they will stand behind it for an additional year. |

That is a screaming deal. Which dealer in Houston did it? I may have to make a trip down.

That's a great job! Only $5700 bucks for the charger, install and warranty. Awesome!

Yeah Ken, they better look out. I always liked my 03 and now my 05 Hummer's. With the 38's and now the 37's they lacked acceleration. Kinda Like driving a 6800 lb brick. Not any more, I have to be light on the pedal or, it jumps out and goes.... Pulling on the freeeway in front of 18 wheelers is no longer a problem, it jumps up to 80 in the blink of an eye.
