Summary

VF Engineering has been bolting superchargers to cars for a long time, without compromising their reliability or drivability. We've experienced VF's cars first hand and they are always impressive. Today we interview the man in charge, Nik Saran, about why he likes superchargers, how to make power without breaking things, BMW M4s vs Mercedes C63s, supercharging Lamborghinis, and a lot more. This was a great talk, and we learned a lot.  This show is also available as a video, full of pictures, videos, and other assets pertaining to the conversation. https://youtu.be/ZjMFXsU1XF0Follow us: T: @thesmokingtire @zackklapmanIG: @thesmokingtire @fakezackklapman @vfengineeringCheck out our merch!https://teespring.com/stores/thesmokingtire?page=1
