      The recently officially released VF-Engineering supercharger kit for the E90,E92,E93 M3 has been making some waves. Most of you should already know that the kit powered a car well into the 10's in the 1/4 mile. Clearly well tested, tuned well, and just a good overall kit with quality hardware. This video shows exactly what is involved in installing the supercharger on the M3. If one is interested, BimmerBoost vendor VAC Motosports carries it.

        They should have plugged the velocity stacks during install - would have been easy to drop a nut or bolt into one of them.. Other than that, looked like a cool video.

        When a vendor like VAC is actually willing to address a customer's potential concerns about a product or company, it gives me a lot more confidence in both the vendor and the product. I'm sure this kit is great quality and I don't think VAC would put their stamp of approval on it if it wasn't...

        I rode in the green VF supercharged E92 M3 for a few laps on track and it went into limp mode on every single lap. The guys who brought it said it hadn't been fully tuned yet, so I hope that's been taken care of because it was an absolute rocket!

        I put a lot of street miles on the green car and it was solid (even after the 30k miles of abuse it took) but we never officially pushed it on track. No sense really, as we had the kit on our car the day after the green car arrived here Click here to enlarge I can say with confidence that our white car absolutely killed it on track.

        Brey - thanks!

        ps. we had the green car on Thunderbolt as a pace car for fun.

        DO these kits fit RHD cars?

        I believe it should, haven't read anything about RHD E92's having trouble with SC's.
