    That is one of maybe 8 or 9 supercharger kits that Magnacharger fabricated for the 99-04 V6 Grand Am. It was based around the Eaton Gen IV MP62 blower, with a custom-cast inlet/outlet assembly and the extended driveshaft. With the stock 2.8" blower pulley, they produced roughly 6psi and added about 60HP to an otherwise stock car. They originally sold for around $3000US. There are still a few floating around, and are very sought after. They come up for sale once in a blue moon. You can only get them used, and most have seen several owners (yours truly included).

        I believe the official number is 17 kits, 10 gen 4s and 7 gen 3s

        and I too am a former owner of one...

            They are great kits, and with minimal supporting mods can give you 250-300whp. I know several people have sold them when they upgraded cars. No reason to leave them on and sell it with the car. Also people sell them when they are in a pinch it is usally a quick $2000 or more. And lastly people (including me) sell them because that simply is not enough power and move on to bigger and better things......

                  The picture the OP posted is mine. I sold the kit now and as far as I know it was the last m62 that has been up for sale for quite a while.
