Default Re: Supercharger kit for The Limited XF

Of course with no one to vouch for this particular mod it's the 'bang' I'm concerned about.

If the pricing is correct the mod could be done for less (not much) than a decently loaded SRT6. Most importantly (for my selection of a two seat sports car) I refuse to drive an automatic, and I doubt dropping a manual transmission in an SRT6 would cost less than making this mod to a 6 speed Limited. If I were going to drop 35k for an automatic I'd go for an LX with the 5.7 Hemi or spend 40K for an SRT8 charger (plus get two extra doors and a seat).

Just for reference, my local Kleenmann dealer sent me an email;

Hey Justin, there is a low boost supercharger available for the 3.2 Liter motor in the Crossfire. The supercharger increases the horsepower to 280 and increase the torque to 265.
Cost Breakdown: Kompressor $6,500.00
Installation $1,530.00
ECU Upgrade $1,500.00
Total: $10,150.00 installed, including tax.

looks like it's not as cheap as originally thought. ECU tuning is $1,500. lol what a joke! for that price I can buy my own ECU and tune it myself. RAPE! RAPE!!!
