Disagree

I've run blowers longer than a lot of people have had driver's licenses. A blower doesn't mean laying down rubber every time you start the car.

Lets keep it on topic LMAO!

@planedoc I know for me, I just simply love forced induction. I will have a Vortech JT trim, intercooler and brackets waiting in my shop long before the car even arrives. I plan on having the blower kit completely finished with in the first week or so of owning my 2015. As @Noobz347 said, it's simply a sickness for me. Enough is never enough and that ultimately led to my 84' making over 1,800 hp at the flywheel.
With more than 420 hp on tap from the factory the 2015 in normally aspirated trim will provide a very potent combination be it on the track of prowling the streets. The large majority of people will leave these cars normally aspirated and reap the rewards of bolt on performance parts like cold air intakes and exhaust systems. With the simple installation of the supercharging system I'll be even happier with 600+ hp to start. It's not about shredding tires and building a rocket ship for me, the forced induction brings a whole new level of performance to the table. Forced induction coupled with responsible driving can lead to better fuel economy and great street manners all while increasing the fun factor at the track. I know @Sharad for example is clocking over 30mpg in his procharged 10 second street Coyote and that is down right impressive!

I used to race gran prix bikes. After that, no car will ever feel fast to me. I doubt even an 1800hp street car would match the acceleration of an open GP bike. I plan to keep mine bone stock, and just commute to and from work in it. Maybe catch the occasional Mustang club event. I want trouble free reliability. I spend 40 hours a week fixing broken airplanes, I don't want to spend my weekends fixing my car..... 420hp sounds just fine to me.....

I can answer that question. I've heard it said that a picture is worth a thousand words. Sometimes a few words are worth a thousand pictures.



This is my Kenne Bell Supercharger. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

My Kenne Bell is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.

My Kenne Bell, without me, is useless. Without my Kenne Bell, I am useless. I must throttle my Kenne Bell true. I must drive straighter than my enemy who is trying to out-accelerate me. I must get the jump on him before he gets the jump on me.

I will...

My Kenne Bell and I know that what counts in a race is not the fuel we expend, the noise of our superchargers, nor the tire smoke we make. We know that it is the launches that count.

We will launch...

My Kenne Bell is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its inlet restrictions and its bypass valve. I will keep my Kenne Bell clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other.

We will...

Before God, I swear this creed. My Kenne Bell and I are the defenders of my ride. We are the masters of our torque curve. We are the saviors of my sanity.

So be it, until victory is America's and there is no import economy-box, but peace!​

God bless the General and the United States Marine Corps.

Its the difference in the standard model to the premium model. Cloth vs leather, sound system, interior trim, wheels and tires are all different just to name a few. I know the premium gets have an 8" touch screen in the dash that i don't think the standard models get either.
The add for navigation was 795, the recaro seats were also quite a bit more as well.

I am seriously reconsidering changing my order to a 401A pkg. I really do not want leather, which is included, and I don't want 90% of the rest of the gingerbread the premium brings, but I really gotta have that 8" touch screen. What to do?????

I'm with you on the Forced induction. I love my ProCharged Coyote daily driver. CAN'T WAIT to strap a blower to the 2015!

My other car is a Dodge/Cummins diesel that is of course turbocharged. I've got the boost cranked up to 41PSI, but that engine can handle it. Don't know really what kind of boost a Coyote can safely handle day in and day out?????
