R170 SLK Supercharge Inv. Parts
First off, X'ed... It was a joke. I didn't really think anyone would take it seriously.
Anyway, I don't think you'll have anything to worry about. Out of the 12 emails I sent last night (I too have sent many in the past), I received six "sorry, we don't have anything..."s, two were returned due to bad email addresses, and one company actually replied and said that the Kleemann and Renntech superchargers are a good deals. Good deal or not, they're out of my price range (even with XethW's $250).
Oh, I did talk to kid in Texas that is going to school to be a mechanic and he put out some feelers for me. He heard that Vortech is currently working on a supercharger for the Crossfire but couldn't come up with any details. I don't know if it's true, but it's the most promising thing I've heard.
I'll let you know if I get any other promising leads...

Just a quick update....I was 0 for 12 on this latest "mass" email. As for Vortech working on a system, they didn't mention it when they emailed me back. Anyone else having any luck?

One item everyone seems to be overlooking is the ECU that HAS TO be replaced at a couple grand.
There is no easy fix when it comes to installing a Blower. This is not a small block chevy.
A good harmonic balancer for the MB 3.2 V6 can run $650- $1000.
Throwing as much as 14-PSI on top of your stock injectors can, well if you can't figure that one out maybe you should go ahead and find out the hard not to mention the expensive way...
Just as I did go and take the loss on your Crossfire and trade it in on the SRT6 you will be far happier.
Plus when you get it you will find out that to increase it to well over 400 horse is less than a thousand buck. Trust me when it comes to HP there isn't ever enough.
