How much of a MPG are you losing (if any) with the SC? I've noticed a more than 4 MPG increase with the Hahn stage 2 and the tune ( and it seems to keep increasing) and I drive it worse than the stock including the occasional do nought ( no sprinkles)

Must be great to have choices in your garage!
Do you have an N/A version to go grocery shopping?
-
to be honest I never pay close attention to mph. The machine was driven hard in co and fullups seemed similar before it was boosted.

I great respect for your amazing ability and ingenuity. There is no question as to why you are so successful.
Now I just need to figure out how my finances can keep up with your product line... -

I can't imagine that the van will stay NA for long!

Looks like SC is going to be my choice... Though I'd definitely like that raw power for the straight roads/red lights.
But what about traction? I suppose the supercharger is easier on the rear tire than the turbo?
-
MPH, or MPG? Not that I care about MPG, just an observation. Stage 2 running 7 PSI boost got me 148 MPH (indicated) before I shut it down. I was just curious because it seems that a SC takes HP to make HP and a turbo takes wasted energy to make HP.

You learn how to feather the gas and you can drive it like you stole without losing traction. I drive like a lunatic and have only lost it twice once when I hit some sand in a turn and once I went for the Disney Hydroplane ride when I hit standing water. Luckily recoverd from both without damage to anything but my pride....love my turbo!

Me want super charger, but me can't afford it. Great work guys!

Um... NO! Rubber usage will be as bad as a jock in a catholic high school. The SC will spin through the first three gears just like stock spins through first. Like I said consistant power but just more of it.

That was a great video. I really liked the cop car view. Hi @SlingMods_Josh, good seeing you again brother. I think just like the cop, I like the supercharger.

I just ordered a Hahn Stage 2 system. Are you relying on the Slingshot's computer-calculated mpg or are you dividing gallons bought by miles driven? -
Ive met allot of cool officers but he take the cake! One cool dude!!! Total car nut and does the driving training for the department. So how this all went down was he stopped by to talk to Ivor. Ivor then came and got me and said he wanted to help set up a autoX on the test track they use for the PD. Hell yeah!! We got talking and he brings up the road that on the vid and how fun and twisty it is. He brings up the idea of closing the road to do a time trial hill climb next year for the event WHOAAAAAAA my jaw just about hit the floor!!
So i ask him to show me the road and propose the idea of filming as well. He's game and that's how we got footage for the vid
