Chop Shop - Supercharger

" It's paid every way. I need windscreen wipers on my glasses. Copenhagen is the place of the Little Mermaid, smorgasbord, and super charges, and I've come over here. I am soaking wet, pissed off. Don't know where the hell I am. No one speaks complete English. I'm starving, angry, and completely covered up in there."

" I'm having a great time"

" ."

" So forgetting about the supercharger, Bernie is off to Walmart and see if the local foods is good as in his local greasy spoon in Bethnal Green."

" So, this one is?"

" Herring."

" And that one?"

" Herring. Herring."

" That's?"

" Herring."

" That's?"

" Herring."

" That's?"

" Herring."

" That's."

" Herring. Herring. Herring. That is herring, but warm herring."

" You could have any herring you like. Hot herring, cold herring and longer spring. I'll taste that but any more herring, I will be swinging back to the UK."

" After his herringy pit stop, Bernie heads off to meet accounts manager, Bass, and technical expert, Allen."

" Hey buddy."

" Hi."

" Please to meet you."

" Come on in."

" Please to meet you."

" At the factory were they've been building superchargers since 1996."

" This our production facility."

" This as we're going to use in your car Bernie. With the superchargers, it's quite an easy drive. You drive it directly from the engine, from the crankshaft by a belt through this pulley. It basically is a centrifugal supercharger as we call it. As you can see, it's not much bigger than an average old tomato."

" And it doesn't [unk]. This is the greatest thing. This reminds me of one thing we used to call years ago, pocket rocket."

" Yes."

" And this is what this is. This is the pocket rocket, but this, this is gonna give me how much break horsepower of my engine?"

" It's got the standard 160."

" It's 162"

" Yes."

" 162, 163."

" Yeah."

" 4 cylinder."

" With this unit, spinning it at average boost, you will achieve 240, 250 horsepower."

" 250?"

" Yes."

" Despite putting this thing on?"

" Yes, correct."

" To prove the theory, Bass lets Bernie lose with the factory demonstrator. It's a Ferrari F430."

" For a long while which is like to the Ferrari."

" Normally, it would have 490 break horsepower, but with its twin superchargers, it reaches an unreal 700. Could this be the best solution for getting David Ginola's extra horses? Bernie is giving it a whirl."

" Evel Knievel, the best known [unk] in a Ferrari F430. When you put your foot down on this, it is totally and utterly frightening."

" There, I'll tell you better than the old backseats clinched it over there, but get used to it. Like just this move, this whistles, just like a jet is coming in and you put your foot down. As you put it down, it's there. There's no lag, there's no obviously, there's nothing. And I'll tell you something, it's worth coming over to Copenhagen because if our Porsche goes anything like this with the supercharger in it, I will be stoked. Absolutely stoked."

" Bernie is hooked. A supercharger is definitely what the Porsche engine needs. And amazingly, after all those fish for lunch, Bernie fancies a couple of doughnuts."
