9:35 😂 is it too late for me to win the Dreamhouse😂. 12-10-23

[@rangerrecon]

I heard about this supercharger when you were out with the TrailReacon and others in the States. Awesome mod! And I liked your justification for it where it was really just about getting stock performance back that was lost due to the added modifications to the Jeep that added the weight/gearing.

[@libertystuffnthingsreviews829]

I was going to say the same thing. He must have been behind on editing video?

[@FlawedOffroad]

@@libertystuffnthingsreviews829 most people are, trail recon stays very current. Pretty sure they are back in USA a second time

[@TheStoryTillNow]

My video with Brad will be out next week. I'm currently a couple weeks ahead and still traveling.

[@xLopez210x]

"dont break it"..... little did we know that was foreshadowing at its finest

[@petereldredge6204]

I was like damn, that thing got 60 really fast, then I was like oh ya..it’s in kph, looks good! Hope it works out well for you.

[@HardNorthOutdoors]

great vid !! Superchargers are often overlooked when building an offroad rig. the low end torque advantage is bar none the best benefit. i have one in the works also once warranty runs out.

[@jljohnnysjeeplife]

That looks and sounds amazing. my only concern is, I ordered the front trail camera and therefore I need to keep the plastic mesh grill installed. I notice that you removed yours, is that more so you could really see the supercharger, or was there a clearance issue?

[@montechie]

That's awesome, great content as always! The collab with Epic is great, and so funny. I missed whether you've done an axle upgrade, do you think you'll need to at least upgrade the shafts between the mod-weight and greater HPs?

[@n.lockard2094]

I love watching. Your videos normally are so relaxing yet interesting. Keep doing what your doing!

[@lauriehaning1492]

Awsome Shaun! Congrats on the upgrade. Looks like you are in for some fun times! Don’t break anything. Paul will not be happy!

[@jo23sue23]

What’s up Shaun. As always, cool content. Glad to see that you were able to save the snorkel setup with the Supercharger Install. Ever since I installed my Supercharger It held me back from putting on a Snorkel but thanks to your video you gave me an idea on how to do it. I have the 3.8 so I’m wondering if that cold air canister should adapt the same.

[@IronWolfOverland]

Awesome field repair! Another good reason to wheel with a group!

[@chris1293]

I did the Ripp supercharger couple years ago on my modded Jeep. Works really well and pretty happy with its performance. Only down side is city/off road gas mileage went to crap. Highway is about the same or better then before the SC.

[@ajyoussef2927]

Hi Shaun, love your channel! I don't know if you've mentioned this before but did you reheat the gladiator? If so, to what gear ratio? Also what do you normally air down to in deep snow like this? Thank you

[@kevinjaczyk3562]

Shawn the trail record sounds sick with the supercharger I'm so jealous, I finally got rid of my Nissan frontier pro 4X it served me well I now proudly own a 2021 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon black and she's gonna be called I think black beast I can't call her the trail record as you already have that name and it sounds great I'm picking her up at the dealership today I told them that I wanted it with AA spray and bedliner atone oatono cover and 35" all terrain tires so they're coming with K02 alternate tires 35" I've wanted a Gladiator since I started watching your videos over a year afor a year ago and now I'm finally gonna be able to make memories with my own Gladiator on Gladiator thank you for all the amazing videos keep him coming!!

[@bobmathew3380]

Love Trail Recon and when he recommends a channel you know it’s good. I was not disappointed. I was wondering about a Ripp…so this was awesome!

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Thanks Bob!

[@lunamaria1048]

I had a Magnuson supercharger installed in my 20,19 4Runner, in late 2019.. I love it!

[@bsideadventures2180]

Best of luck and hope it works for you sir. Unfortunately I learned the hard way with this kit.

[@SpencerHogg]

Insane man love the full-send build and the content showing the progress, even tho I'm a Taco guy haha, love the Gladiator

[@youknow1093]

Supercharger kit looks awesome and sounds even better And like always content is Awesome 👍👍

[@frost381]

Stellantis should literally be paying you for Jeep adverts. They don’t need to make their own lol. They should just ask you!

[@cjcowboy7625]

WOW ! I like the supercharger upgrade. Lots of more power.

[@FlawedOffroad]

Im glad that bolt didnt roach out while you were doing that launch!

[@TracksideNW]

So your stock engine radiator gets no air through the grill now or does the new red grill replace it?

[@EJPinter]

Damn that sounds sick with the supercharger! What A pillar lights are those? I have been looking for some myself.

[@nickfraser2844]

I love the Sound of the Supercharger like a Snake on steroids. Great video once again. Looking forward to the next episode.

[@kengeroo]

any plans on an aftermakret ECU to bring out all the potential of all the aftermarket wobbly bits you're adding on ?

[@anthonygendron9737]

Finally the video I was waiting for

[@DarksideOffRoad]

Such a beast. Awesome stuff Shaun!

[@who_stole_my_username]

"This greasy snow is no problem for the Super Trail Wrecker! Wooo!".....clunk....."Broke something..."

[@TJ-po9ol]

14:27 thats more crack than Doug Ford could handle!

[@calvin21gmail]

Had this same kit - love the blow off valve. In the end it blew the bottom end of my motor running pretty moderate boost. Stock motors are just not meant for that much HP. Hope you don't join the large group of us in the "blown Jeep" club. New motor was $12k.

[@theyeetus1428]

New motors are made to withstand the bare minimum necessary for regular use.

[@chubbyfpv4310]

Good Old Toyota has it's Jeep brothers back :) Are we thinking the extra horses caused more torque on your suspension, unloosing that rear suspension linkage ? Hope no damage occurred!

[@chaleowin7732]

Simply put, Badass.

[@craigkairis4394]

How is your trans with the added power? Do you think it will blow or is it good with the added power? Thinking of doing this to my 21 mojave gladiator. Thanks in advanced

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Don’t do it

[@chach7]

The goat Braun has returned

[@jfloydsea]

Sorry to see you’re using RIPP coil packs. I’ve had nothing but failure after failure from them. Finally went back stock.

[@martinnightingale6033]

Wish I lived in Canada . I came on a visit for 5 weeks 40 years ago . Still got some great memories from that trip . Actually didn’t want to come home . Great vlog .

[@chadgammon9890]

Hey Shaun, as I’m staring at another beautiful view out your windshield (great vid btw) I am wondering where you got the hood mount solar? If you have an affiliate link I’ll be happy to support the channel. Thanks in advance if you see this!

[@bengashi6208]

Those turn signals are very nice, very slick? Which ones are those?

[@ddesilva61]

Ohy boy! Pre-order the 3.6 rebuild kit..or the Hemi replacement now!

[@theanswer69786]

whats the ballpark cost of this supercharger? is there one for ecodiesel?

[@launchpad12]

How brutal on fuel is it so far? Using 91 octane?

[@skye1355]

whats the hp/torque gain? hp to wheels?

[@scottsnyder8691]

You can come get your Expedition now. 😁 That's so Canadian to leave the keys in it too. Not sure they'd do that here in the states. Someone did that in Europe when they parked our bike in. I just moved the car and pulled the bike out.

[@Jtwizzle]

Jeez, that's a very nice bump in power.

[@SOGSEAL]

i see that you guys like these ripp superchargers, do you have any experience with magnuson superchargers? i feel like magnuson are easier to install as diy. thank you

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Don't supercharge a 3.6 motor.

[@SOGSEAL]

@@TheStoryTillNow i assume go with hemi swap ? :)

[@allanstephenson9336]

What is the cost. about. ?? Will the engine last ???? Thanks. Looks cool

[@1BadVan]

That first shot, is that Pitt lake?

[@kiyancaras2404]

Have u had any long term issues with the super charger? Thinking about boosting mine

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Didn't last long enough to test long term.

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

Love it!!! Now I have to do something wizh my XJ! 😄

[@blueman5924]

So covering the stock rad with the new intercooler doesn’t effect cooling ?

[@TheFlyingSquidwithMagical]

the air still goes through the intercooler and hits the radiator, so not at all. plus if it were to go down the radiator has its own fan that will kick in

[@RIPPMODS]

@@vitaminb4869 It doesn't. The air passing through the intercooler into the radiator isn't in contact with the fins for long enough to any effective change in temperature. Near ambient air temp is still hitting the radiator.

[@beardoswaggins739]

That candy apple red 😍🔥🔥

[@Reverend1776]

I've gone back and forth on gearing vs. Supercharging my 4runner. Ideally both, but life still must go on.

[@MSparks9509]

Gearing. Your transmission will thank you.

[@LlamaValhalla]

Damn and I thought the wrecker was already supercharged!

[@Shazit222]

What a beast!

[@deanh7190]

How much torque was added?

[@Billrovid]

Just started to watch and thought to myself this is when shit starts breaking and then i hear broke something lol

[@donnamaben775]

Love your Video's

[@scottj.7105]

Hey Shaun! Great looking Supercharger.... how much more HP do u think it gave the Jeep? Also why is Braun's rig always smoking from the exhausts? The dream home and Bacon 🥓 reference 😂😂👍

[@1BadVan]

In the video, they state that it should bring it to about 380 at the wheel. So compared to stock, 160-180hp boost at the wheel

[@scottj.7105]

@@1BadVan sweet 👍

its not smoke its steam from dual exaust lol

Welcome to the boosted club!

Keep an eye on that snorkel for it to collapse from the vacuum. You'd be amazed at how much air is being pulled through that is now being restricted by the snorkel.

More horsepower just means you can get into trouble faster. ; )

Always carry a spare blow-off fuse.

Seriously, keep your old coil packs or ask RIPP for a couple spares. They have a bad habit of going bad. Speaking from personal experience.
