[QUOTE="JasonSnake, post: 8105683, member: 35767"] 1) Supercharger sucks in outside air. 2) Outside air becomes hot when it is compressed and also b/c it goes through a hot supercharger. 3a) this hot, compressed air goes through an intercooler, cooling it down significantly, near outside air temps. The engine loves this cool air and tuners can bump up the timing for better numbers. 3b) this hot, compressed air goes straight into the engine, engine can potentially have severe pre-detonation (b/c the air is already really hot), stressing the pistons and other parts. You'll hear the engine knock badly when not tuned properly and engine dies. [/QUOTE]
