Roush 05

My dad bought an S281. It's white with blue accents. It's hot looking, but watch out, those tires run in the range of 600 a piece. I want him to put a supercharger on it. He says it would diminish the value since it's not stock, he has only put on like 2000 miles and that has been going down. I told him that he could take off the supercharger is he wanted to put it back to stock. Like a procharger system. WHat do you all think?

Why use the saleen kit? It's like 5g's.

If he is paying $600ea for tires then he is shopping at the wrong place!

Drop a Vortech S-Trim in it. It requires very little mods to the car, easy to return to stock, and doesn't require intercooling below 9 lbs of boost and will be good for around 450 rwhp.

The pirelli Pzero tires on there he was told are 600 a piece. WHen he brought it home it had a leaky tire, dealership won't fix it they told him it was 600 andthey would sell it to him for 300. On top of that, they chipped off the powdercoat near the lugnuts taking the tires off.

Those prices are for 18" wheels, the '05's & '06's are running 20's. I have managed to buy replacements for my '05 for as cheap as $398 a tire from Discount Tire. I believe the wholesale price on those is around $260.
