I was KW supercharged. They have a black intercooler which is pretty stealthy. But I switched from the supercharger to the Greddy 620z turbo kit. The intercooler is small, so most people don't see it. Best part is there's no turbo flutter unless I get on it. The shock on people's face when they hear the flutter is priceless.

The most negative comment I've had was from a sarcastic douche bag that said "oh wow that's awesome now you have a real sports car like a Porsche".

The only negative comments I get is people trying to cast dispersions on my wife having the family car while I have the toy.
