[QUOTE="Dane, post: 1535882, member: 2494"] I supercharged my 2012 at 50K miles and have had no regrets. It's a different beast. Couple things. Make sure to upgrade your oil pump. Also (your results may vary here) my stock exhaust couldn't handle it. I blew one cat and cracked two exhaust manifolds before biting the bullet and going to a full exhaust system. Others have had better luck. You're mpg is going to go down, mostly because it's pretty impossible to lay off of the skinny pedal. I do a fair amount of towing a toyhauler camper up the Rocky Mountains. I originally had to upgrade the tranny cooling (not due to the supercharger), but now I have to watch my engine temps. I have enough power that it can start heating up during long nasty uphill pulls if I don't chill out. I'm probably going to upgrade the radiator soon. No real issues to speak of other than that.
