Magnuson Superchargers.

Assembling, Packaging, Shipping

Any BLGT hookups? I need pretty much everything for the 5vz supercharger kit BUT the supercharger itself (been sitting on it for years). In another 5 or 6 yrs I might actually get it mounted on something haha.

Our central Utility plant is natty gas/ diesel, what's the main difference just using the current of the ocean to run the generator?

 

[desert_steve]

We're water-driven (think hoover dam but on a much smaller scale) by the water coming out of the mountains (snow melt, springs, etc). We're seriously small scale compared to other generating methods. So where you guys are generating using big ass engines (train engines?) that are probably cranking out 4000+ kw, our tiny plants are putting out 400 kw lol.

Still cool! Are you guys generating DC since it's from water or is it an AC generator? We're borderline independent cogen but since socal Ed rules the area we can't be deemed a power plant so we use I think the legal portion of 5%? I always find Power plants to be fascinating!

 

[FarmerMike]

Also I am partners in a growing group and we farm in Coachella, Valle de Trinidad and Mexicali, mainly growing peppers for subway, chilis for Sriracha and fresh markets.

[AiiRaciing]

I started with UPS in 1996 and if everything goes to plan I’ll retire in the next 4-5 years, from there I’ll figure out what I wanna do with my life/career.

April 2014 we started Black Widow, I was looking at it as side gig and I was wrong, that’s been a full time job in itself and hopefully it continues to grow

 

[WW_RANGER_X]

For the last 2 years I've been a parts manager and mechanic for a brake/suspension/RV/trailer repair facility here in Visalia Ca called Gross and Stevens. I get to work on and be around cool shit all day long! I also service shocks as a side gig.. I was in the automotive lube industry before this for almost 13 years. Glad I got out!

 

[theycallmeWALLY]

Dang @WW_RANGER_X ! Way cooler shop enviroment then a lube shop That jeep setup is pretty sweet!

 

[Juan50JuanRum]

I recently started working for a semiconductor CMP company as a Field service engineer based out of PHX but traveling the country and out of country as well.

i used to weld for a construction company as well as service tech for carwashes right before this job

 

[UCD BAJA]

I work for the Animal Science Dept. at UC Davis in northern Ca. I manage our Meat lab where we have a USDA inspected kill floor where we slaughter approximately 300 pigs, 150 lambs and 75-100 beef cattle per year. From there the rest of the plant is is inspected by CDFA and we either sell the carcasses to other butcher shops or grocery stores or I teach Meat Sci students how to kill, fab, process, grade & market the meat we produce which is a byproduct of teaching and research.

Pretty cool gig, I am the only full time employee and I have 5-6 student employees and a couple classes I teach so I use my employees like TA's to help me in the lab settings and often time use my lab students as slave labor to get shit killed/cut and out the door. We have a small retail store that's open Thursday & Friday afternoons where we sell to the public and have approximately 200 walk in customers a week.

Some day I may open my own shop if my carpul tunnel isn't too bad by then, had my first hand done when I was 28 and my other is getting bad. Been doing this for 16 years.
