OK supercharger owners.....I have read about and am experiencing the pulley/tensioner nightmare....but what else can you all tell me about the Paxton system?

I noticed a canister mounted in front of the radiator.. what's that all about.

any advise about ongoing maintenance? changing oil in the SC, etc?

Thanks

Hi Marty - S/C is fun. Never had Nitrous.

To fit the S/C , a new power steering reservoir was installed in front of the rad.
Also found that performance gears allowed the engine rpm and S/C to spool up faster. Not great for those 80mph highway drives though.

Only had one incident with S/C. Tried drag race against brothers Viper. Jumped timing belt going into second gear. Limped home on 3 cylinders....... Hemi was next.

Enjoy your new ride !!!

Thanks Tony - have to figure if it has gears. It has oversized 22" wheels and checking the odometer against the interstate mile markers for 100 miles (3 separate times) and it is registering 3.1-3.3% lower than actual.

RPMs were 2200 at 75 MPH so if speedo I also off 3% that would be 77 at 2200RPM.

With gears, my car is more like 3000rpms at 75mph
