Every day i see those guys with their SRT-8 grand cherokee & charger trying to have some "fun" running through traffic lights at red.usually cops pull them over once the SRT-8 emblem is sighted on the spot
It's deffinetly a waste of money having one of those rocket-on-wheels here in the city
I never really considered the S/C to be a "speed" addition, but it is a great perk for a power additive. I live in a fairly rural area with many hills. Pre-S/C, some of those hills made my VX pant like a dog. Post-S/C, she crawls up with more ease. But, the added speed boost at higher RPMs on highway use is a treat, when I am not sitting in DC beltway traffic, heh.
I imagine the rock hopper folks that do MOAB with the S/C could tell ya just how much more helpful it is. Probably more beneficial for that sort of use, IMHO.
