Specialty Vehicle Engineering, our parent company (formerly SLP) has been manufacturing performance parts and specialty vehicles for GM dealers and performance enthusiasts for over 30 years. From 1996-2002 we built over 55,000 Camaro SS, RS, and Firebird-based WS-6, Firehawk and Comp-TA specialty vehicles as GM’s Tier One supplier. As of the 2018 model year we’ve also built over 1000 supercharged Camaros, Full-Size GM Trucks and SUV specialty vehicles.
When it comes to superchargers, they have been installing aftermarket superchargers for quite a number of years, so they recognized the need for an OEM-quality supercharger kit in the aftermarket offering quiet operation, improved performance and compact size. We’ve been able to incorporate all of those improvements in our new supercharger kits being offered in this catalog, through extensive design work and testing, resulting in easier installation, better serviceability, and best of all increased performance.
The new HAMBURGER’S Supercharger kits for GM, Dodge and Jeep applications will impress you from the moment you open the box, to the first time you start your engine.
The superchargers they offer use a state-of-the-art traction drive system to drive the impeller, rather than the traditional gear drive system aftermarket companies use. This allows the superchargers we offer to spin higher (impeller speeds up to 90,000 rpm vs. aftermarket units @ 65,000 rpm), along with virtually no noise or “gear whine” that is typical of other superchargers. This Traction Drive System transmits power through the friction created between its planetary rollers and a unique hydraulic fluid, rather than through the gear drives aftermarket companies use. To ensure optimum performance, we use a unique traction fluid in the system that is designed to increase viscosity under high surface pressures. This fluid gives the rollers additional “grip” and prevents slippage by increasing the friction between the planetary rollers, while also cooling and protecting the system. This traction drive system combined with the latest technology in centrifugal compression provides greater efficiency and lower noise, giving the superchargers we offer much higher efficiency compared to aftermarket centrifugal or positive displacement superchargers, along with very quiet operation.
Emission compliance is very important to Hamburger’s Superchargers, so our engineering team has worked hard to ensure that our supercharger kits meet the compliance standards set by C.A.R.B. (California Air Resources Board) for those vehicles we offer a supercharger kit and PCM calibration for. Our supercharger kits are certified by C.A.R.B. to be 50- State Emission Legal, and are covered by the appropriate E.O. numbers. The supplied calibrations are intended for stock vehicles with or without a cat-back exhaust system, but with no other engine modifications made.
For those individuals wanting to push the performance limits of their engine, and use other aftermarket performance parts, we also offer a “tuner” kit which comes without a calibration. Our Tuner kits require a custom calibration which can be provided by a local tuning shop with calibration tuning capabilities. Tuner kits are not 50 -state emission legal and not available for sale in California.
Hamburger’s Superchargers warrants its supercharger kits and components to be free from defects in material and workmanship for 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first.
Their supercharger kits are completely engineered and designed in 3D CAD to ensure precise fit and maximum performance. All of our mounting brackets are machined from aircraft quality 6061-T6 ½” thick aluminum. All of our hard air tubes are rotationally molded using automotive grade composite resins,and soft air tubes are manufactured using high temperature reinforced silicone. Our intercoolers are optimally sized for their respective applications, and are vacuum brazed and pressure tested during manufacturing to ensure the highest quality. They utilize OEM quality double bearing idlers where necessary, for maximum reliability, as well as OEM style connectors and wire harnesses for an easy, clean, and reliable installation.
