Look in tech or forced induction sections. General section is for things like: I need some help, should I get chrome valve stem caps or black ones?

There are choices other than chrome or black ..............



The only drawback is that they only blink when the car is moving. Might be moded to blink all the time.

Well, with 600 HP from the supercharger, valve caps tend to just fly off the car anyway. So, who cares what color they are!

I think LPE has a supercharger coming out any time now. The ones I've seen posted lately are turbochargers I believe.
