That's going to be one tricked out Pathfinder! Looking forward to seeing the progress...
Can you provide more details/pics on the Perrin Supercharger? My search for Perrin Superchargers online produced only information for Perrin turbos...ArmyPathfinder wrote: after returning from my short deployment, i just recently ordered and will be installing a Perrin Supercharger, K&N High Flow intake 77 series, Bully dog superchip, and Gibson swept side exhaust...will post pics and videos after they are installed this weekend
Yea i just had received a run around from them regarding my exhaust and its pissing me off, this will be my final time purchasing from them jokersjlwardn wrote:Be carful with Carid. I bought those halo projector lights. After very long installation and some professional help aiming my hids......we discovered there is only up/down adjusters and no left/right adjustment. I contacted CarId and they told me I must have defective headlights or I must be missing the other adjuster....well after 2 weeks of arguing they heard back from Anzo that they only have one adjustment. They can't be properly adjusted. I paid at least $50 more to buy them from them. The customer service rep trying to help me with the adjuster problem told me that they have a price match guarantee. Now after two weeks....they won't email me back. After 3 more emails they are offering me $15 refund. Complete BS. They are the ones that told me about the price match when I brought up how high their prices were compared with 5 other vendors/eBay.
Get a lower price and understand you can't adjust these left and right so they will be a little off and you might find the light crosses each side too quick on the road.
I do love the the light output but wish they were higher quality.
Buy hids elsewhere and cheaper
Im sorry i meant stillen not perrin, the names are so similar in a way...the supercharger is showcased in this videogoblue90 wrote:Can you provide more details/pics on the Perrin Supercharger?

buying a different vehicle defeats the whole purpose of a modders individuality, i invest on parts to express myself and my own taste. I think everyone can relate to that, if I wanted to buy a whole new car and just leave it at that then thats just boring. Why do you choose to mod? I am sure its the same reason.redwing wrote:Why didn't you just buy a different vehicle?
you could hear a faint blow off from my BOV, granted there are a lot of outside wind noise...but hehe im happy, slamming the hood on my pinky was worth it!ArmyPathfinder wrote:its a bad quality video, shot it from my iphone after installing the supercharger, just wanted to see if it could be heard but i guess i thought i'd share it...more videos coming up soon
