Just pickup my grabber blue..now for a supercharger?

[boston2k4]

anyone snag a procharger kit yet and do the install? im curious on there numbers and reliability any input would be great. Pics and dyno sheets would be the icing on the cake.

if not procharger what other kits has anyone installed techco, vortech, paxton, whipple,, KB, roush?

thanks

It depends on what you want out of the car.

If you want a fun street car and don't plan going to the track a lot I would do a Saleen. I don't know if the 05-09 Saleen blower works on the 2010s but even if it doesn’t they will be coming out soon enough. Those seem to make some of the best power on the 05-09s, no offence to anyone but the Roush blower sucks from what I've seen. Another great option would be a KB or Whipple but I prefer Whipple over KB.

Now if you are more into racing at the strip and want a more street friendly blower (ie: not blowing your tires off from a dig at WOT) I would do a centri blower like a Novi or Vortech. IMO Novi>Vortech>Procharger and I own a Vortech. LOL The centri will build boost instead of having full boost right off of idle and makes it a little easier to launch on the street or the strip while giving you a little stronger top end compared to the roots/twin screw.

As for reliabliity any of them will be fine as long as you don't go crazy with the boost.

I believe I read somewhere that the motor is the same from the 05-09 mustangs.

I know it is for the most part but I heard there is something different about them.

Also I just checked and if you look at Whipple, Vortech, Novi, and Procharger's websites they all have a 05-09 and then a 2010 kit. So apprently something has changed.

Just about every blower kit for the S197 GT's are great. Pick any of them and you'll be happy. I personally went with a Vortech V2 centrifugal to keep the cost way down, but any of the centri's, twin screws, or standard roots style will make way more power than the average enthusiast can use in a street car.

thans for the replies and insight.
ordered a procharger HO kit 10lbs of tire smoking nonesense should hit 450 from what i was told but my dyno guy says the tuning is a taaad different so its almost a crap shoot on those canned tunes that come with the kit. we will see
back ordered till aug 1st will post an install and tune guide when it happens.

Why wouldn't you get the complete Ford kit?
