I have the Xcharger on my V6 and have had no problems.
Like Graypony said visit the 4.0 collecitve, you will find several V6 owners who have Superchargers and race them and have had no problems.

"Post your stories please, I'm interested to hear of common causes."

It's a poorly-phrased title and a poorly-phrased request. YouDO "blow" something, in the context of "being blown," with a supercharger. So the title is fairly redundant. Regardless, his reference to "common causes" clears things up a bit that he is talking about "blowing UP your engine because you were running a supercharger."

Glad to see that was cleared up. Yes I'm talking about blown up engines.

Sure anytime you place extra power on a car and don't have it tuned right you could blow it....
