I am planning to buy manual GT and make some mods Vortech Supercharging System with V-2 SQ & Aftercooler + bolt ons.
Are there problems after using it? what other things should I change it? It Adds 142 horsepower
Adds 98 ft/lbs of torque. Any suggestion?

I've got an 01 GT w/an Intercooled Vortech S-Trim. This is the kit to buy:
http://www.modularfordpowerhouse.com/products.php?id=49

It includes a T-Trim upgrade which is about 800. Get a powerpipe, upgrade to the 90 mm Lightning MAF and 42# injectors. You may want to consider an Intercooler while you're at it, depends on your budget.

N/A with a prochamber and welded-in Flows I made 239.5 hp and around 274 ft-lbs STD of torque. With the S-trim, 3.6 pulley, powerpipe, 90 mm MAF, and 42# injectors I made 372.7 hp/374.5 ft-lbs STD. With Intercooler and 3.33 pulley, I made 385 hp/378 ft-lbs SAE corrected

either blowers will rock your world. The KB is instant torque and full boost at low RPM. The Vortech lets ya get off the line then slams the poor passengers in thier seats. The Paxton flows more than the Vortech, comes with the intercooler, and is easier to maintain (read.. replace belts). With the KB, replacing the belt is even easier.
