Default JWT Popcharger

Just installed the popcharger myself today. Love the increase in sound especially at higher speeds... not sure if I notice the increase in power but definitely hear it...

Glad I saved myself $60 for install at local shop. Not that hard of install at all although I think I still need to make sure everything is sturdy...

I'll install your popcharger free of charge just buy me happy meal . if i remember correctly you just need a 10mm wrench and socket wrench with extension. it should take you 20-30mins for installation.

if you have manual trans ( like my z) then there's a possibility that the car will stall at high speed. i have my popcharger for almost 1 year now and the car never stalled on me. that's the only down side i can think of.

Don't have anything else yet but I'll be getting headers, cats and y-pipe installed next week. I'm sure there'll be a difference... will update once installed.

Here's a link to : ?? It won't let me link to another Z forum for some reason. Go to **********.

Only hard part is punching the holes in the plastic to hold the shield and I had to get some washers to raise the popcharger to keep it from touching on of the tubes under it.

I've heard about the stalling thing but I've gone as fast as 145mph and no problems so far...

I had mines over 1wk now and passed the speed-limiter on my car. I actually got up to 158mph and that's on everything I love. Plus let me add I also had a passenger in the car. I plan on hitting the whole speedometer this weekend.

Have you purchased a cemetery plot yet?
If not you should have mommy and daddy do that for you.

I guess there's a lot more open space to drive that crazy in SC because you can only drive like that real late at night because of the horrible traffic in southern ca. I for one don't see a difference other than the sound on my popcharger. My idle sucks though ever since it's been in my car.

I dont know what to say about ur situation man, but I know for a fact my acceleration to top speed is quicker and throttle response has improved. Plus u can hear that thing sucking in air by making a hissing or high pitch noise. Plus when I had the stock filter system on when I was back home with long straights I couldn't get pass 156mph and now I can.
