    +1 to this thread. i, too am on the fence about buying a supercharger for my 2013 6spd 2dr rubi.

    in addition to the ones mentioned, i would also be interested in peoples' input regarding the sprintex offering. here is a writeup on it i saw recently:
    http://sophistijeep.blogspot.com/201...-sprintex.html

    there doesnt seem to be too much information out there regarding these untis on manual transmissions.

    i would be grateful if anyone with a unit installed could answer any of the following:

    if you have a manual, how is the tune? any hiccups? does the stock transmission/clutch seem to handle the power ok?

    for water intercooled units, has this been a problem? leakage, etc?

    im leaning toward the ripp unit, any issues with it?

    how has customer service been with your manufacturer if youve had to contact them?

    thanks in advance!

    *edit, also, how is fuel economy affected on your rig?

    Ive played with all the mods you've seen on the site, but only owned a RIPP supercharger with Manual Trans.

    My tune was perfect. You'll find that tune problems are more of an automatic's problem, as I know first hand that RIPP and Mag both had top notch tunes with BB and Sweet Pea.

    No issues with the Ripp unit or tune.

    Customer service - ive had little detail issues with parts of the kit like having to replace the coolant bottle cap, and I reached them after hours, and they had the part to me, a day or two later.

    Fuel economy is not an improvement with any power mod. You will find yourself driving more aggressively, and there goes your economic win fall.

    I think it is only fair to tell them that Ripp Superchargers gave you the supercharger. Prodigy Performance delivers more HP and TQ per dollar than ANY product on the market including the HEMI's. We also deliver best in class fuel economy at the same time.

    I missed what wes from Prodigy stated above.^^ Here is my response.

    RIPP did give us the supercharger, but that has no effect on my feelings about it. Magnuson also GAVE us a supercharger, and Prodigy GAVE us a TURBO. all on even ground.

    Im not sure the point that wes is trying to make.

ID:	1657I also recently installed a ripp supercharger with the high altitude pulley on my 3.6 manual. Had a small issue with the tune not being installed properly but one phone call to ripp cleared that up as they walked me through the tune install. The power gain is impressive and comes on very smooth.

    how high is your actual altitude?

    what made you pick RIPP?
