I sometimes consider supercharging my car again, but after reading a few owner's threads, I spot 1 or 2 negative things. Immediately lose my desire to do so despite the countless posts of people saying it's safe. The cycle continues daily.

Ask yourself ......."who am I going to beat by supercharging my car?"

If you can't think of anybody ........ there's your answer .......
