My buddy just told me if I want to see something "crazy" to go down to one of the local Dodge dealers here in town. They have a Magnum SRT8 that blew the engine......"It had a supercharger from a place called GSM or something like that"(his words)........

I am SO GLAD I traded in my '03 Hemi Ram when I did (had the GSM blower). It was just a matter of time before it blew up.

Did GSM actually produce the blower? Or, did GSM just act as middleman and installer?

its a paxton unit I think. not the superchargers fault it's all in the tuning and proper fuel upgardes, injectors, pumps, etc.

Funny.... I got a phone call yesterday from the custom shop I use. They said, 'Hey Greg, we have a guy that just drove in here in an SRT Jeep. What are his options as far as super chargers? He said he heard that GSM was the way to go.'

Well, I won't go into details, but the result was taht this guy was happy they called me, and he'll be waiting a while to purchase a s/c.

Within weeks we may have a workable setup. The plan is coming together!

Great..I need to get this running like it should before you visit Charlotte! And the bling also, chrome etc...whew, my hands are full. Oh yeah, its not like I'm doing the supercharger install myself! Ha.
Dash humps yes, even the chrome valve covers (not the engine covers) but supercharger install, no way. I'm not sure if GC would try that himself.

Not sure when I'll be out next, but it'll be late spring or early summer most likely. So you've got some time :)

GSM truly sucks! The service after the sale is the worst in the industry. It is really sad that they give aftermarkert shops a bad rap because of their products and service. It is an example why dealers compain when we mod are cars!
