Hi,
I'm working on my supercharger install now. I know of some Merc. Mounties with EE Xcharger kits on them online. Since there are alot more Explorers on the road, I'd figure that there would be more of them who's owners also did blowers on them? But, I can only figure they are in stealth mode not letting themselves be known? If anyone is out there, put a mask on the front of yout truck to hide your identity if needed, and post some pis'c of what you got hidden under the hood.
I know once I have mine complete, I will do the same.
Thanks
Keith

How much?

How much booost and HP gain? Did you re-do your bottom end?
 






Am I seeing this right? Do you have a turbo at the back end of your car? With Exhaust and Intake running the complete length of the vehicle? Does it also have an oil line?

a big reason is space issues. why try to cram everything in a tight space when theres a larger area behind the axle.
