Default Popcharger

I know what you're thinking, "Not another Popcharger thread!!".

This is a little different though. I'm about to pick one up but is there any reason why i should wait untill spring/summer to install it? I'm going to drive my car in the snow and i don't think their should be any problem with using the popcharger. Am i correct?

Also anyone know if there are any good deals going on right now for one because of christmas?

Won't matter rain or snow. Only benefits will be, it will look new in the summer.

I'm in the same boat as you, I will install mine in March!

Try the classified, thats where I picked my brand new one up for $100 shipped.

The only thing I could think of was the salt could possibly hurt the finish on the air filter and heat shield.

Thats an amazing deal BTW.

It will be fine if you keep the hood closed when it snows.

Why wait!? Install it now and enjoy it! You won't regret it . . . otherwise, you'll have to read in this forum how us Texas drivers enjoy year-round our Zs with popchargers.

Carry one in your handbag, wallet, or take one to the movies. They are great for a million everyday uses around the house.

Black attracts light which turns into heat. Since its under the hood I don't think that would be a problem.

Thanks. I wouldnt know though. I painted it before installing it. I HIGHLY doubt that it would make a difference.

I used Dupli-Color Engine Enamel w/ Ceramic. Gloss Black DE1613. Rated up to 500 degrees.
