electric supercharger vx110 ?????

as the title reads, would it be safe to fit an electric supercharger to my VX110, supposed to remove any 'lag' and improve fuel if that possible, and advice would be appreciated.

Re: electric supercharger vx110 ?????

Ya, why didn"t you just buy an FXHO and be done with it,instead of TRYING to muck up your ski,the VX series is an entry level ski, not a high performance go fast ski, my advice is leave the VX alone if you wanna go fast move up the Yamaha line and buy a ski that was made to do what you want to do.

Electric superchargers are a joke to begin with, and VX110's arent made to go fast. Just enjoy the water.

Electric superchargers do not exist. They are cabin exhaust vents (bilge blowers) marketed to people that do not know any better. VX's are good, reliable skis. Use it to have fun on the water. If you want to go faster, sell it and get a faster ski.

Re: electric supercharger vx110 ?????

A total waste of time and money !!! Go with Riva mods or home grown intake and exhaust
type stuff other than that leave it alone....

Sure man. I say go for it. It has been failing miserably in cars for years you might as well be the first to have an epic fail with a ski.

I think you should just get a big house fan and duct tape it to your intake. Should be good for atleast 15-20mph increase.
