Default 07 base model with A&A supercharger

My 07 is in the shop getting an A&A supercharger installed. Can anyone tell me what to expect power wise? Am I going to feel a noticeable difference? Is it gonna throw me back in my seat. Will I feel it at lower horsepower or does it kick in at a certain point?

Default like strapping a cheetah on your back

you are likely to gain 200 hp. you are gonna need you relearn to drive that beast or it will scare the heck out of you

have fun, but respect the beast and start shopping for some sticky rubber

[QUOTE=Robin1;1589656559]Can anyone tell me what to expect power wise?
About 150 Hp and an equal amount of Tq

Am I going to feel a noticeable difference?
Your "feel" for the power will be directly proportional to the downward angle of your right foot.

Is it gonna throw me back in my seat.
NO ... It's not a F2 fighter jet! Come on now - let's be realistic.

Will I feel it at lower horsepower or does it kick in at a certain point?
"lower horsepower???" .... It's a centrifugal - power is linear - again directly proportional to the downward motion of your right foot.

So your having the job done, but you have no idea what to expect, never did a search on this? never read any posts on supercharging? and we're supposed to believe this?

You will spin the tires, a lot, in 1st through 3rd gears, unless you upgrade to drag radials.

You will love the acceleration either way, but without drag radials, the car can get sideways really easily.

Expect 550 rwhp or so with stock fuel pump and boost a pump.
