I'm really trying to decide which way to go as far supercharging my GT. Since all the kits (Roush, FRPP, Procharger, etc.) are pretty much within $1000 of each other, I'm wondering about driveability, power peakiness, and so on. Any opinions would be welcome. Mine is a 12 GT with Brembos, 6M, 3.73, Roush axle back, Roush suspension and rear antihop kit. Thanks in advance.

FRPP IMO is best way to go.

FRPP is the way to go. 525 kit comes with warranty fom ford. I'm interested in the 625hp kit. They say these kits r making power through the whole powerband. Usually twin screws fall off a little in the upper rpms but everyoe says these r some beast. Plus they have the best supercharger whine on these new mustangs.

These mustangs can hold a lot of power. I know a guy running a procharger and making 750rwhp and he's on stock internals, stock tranny, and stock clutch.

i was looking at that FRPP 624 kit and i hear they are pretty easy to install, i was also reading up on the kenne bell which seem to get more power with a pretty flat power band. anyone got one of them or know someone who does?

The power band on the FRPP kit is great and the tune is rather conservative. All SC kits with good tunes on these cars will have a great power curve, that's the benefit of TiVCT.

Another poster asked about other mods needed to make supercharging worthwhile...no sense in adding it if you're just spinning wheels. Any thoughts/comments?

You're always going to spin tires no matter who's kit you get. These kits with these style blower make gobs of tourque, for best stability a good set of rear lower control arms is a must (I recommend CHE or Steeda) but there will always be tire burning.

FRPP is a overpriced Roush kit with less warranty. The TVS unit will make incredible power. I'm at 685 rwhp/ 636 rwt. Could not be happier with my Roush TVS blower.
