Prep is what separates a pro result from peeling in a year – clean, degrease, acid etch, fill cracks. DIY vs pro cost and durability compared.

Belt-driven off the crankshaft, forcing denser air into the cylinders for instant boost – no lag like a turbo. Typical gains run 30-50%.

A fabric steamer is the easiest DIY method: $20-$50 in supplies, 3-6 hours. Professional removal runs $200-$450 for most sedans, 1-2 hours.

Home charging: $11-$23 per full charge. Supercharging: $15-$50. Home is 2-4x cheaper per kWh – most owners spend $45-$60 a month.
