Hi guys just waiting on the dealership to get my 5.0 and having them install the supercharger just wondering if anyone has one already and any advice? I'm trading in a ISF and looking for more hp!

No I basically got the same deal tho. 16 Mustang GT with performance pkg parking sensors and black roof $34k and $6200 for supercharger not including labor. I've also ordered quad exhaust and will be done end of next week

So far I'm Paxton supercharger, solid drive shaft, and axles. I've ran an 11.5 at 124 with Nitto NT05R DRs. I'm perfecting my launch still and fighting a failing clutch. At least that's the excuse I like using lol. Might need a driver mod.

They are great on the street when there isn't any rain. For the track I really should have gone with a bias ply slick. It's harder to hook with those tires, a manual, and 3:73s. I really want around a 3:31 gear but I don't think they would fit. The car runs awesome it puts down a little less than 600 to the wheels. Hoping I'll have the extra cash this winter to turn up the boost and add a clutch.

I'm assuming you were running a safe base tune and now you are looking to pull more power out of the car? how many PSI for those numbers? My car laid down 588HP and 505 TQ but I don't have a boost gauge. I think I'm making around 6lbs.

nice! I'm excited to turn the boost up on my car. Supposedly a CAI will yield about 2lb additional over the stock airbox. I'm hoping to do that, a colder range of plugs and a smaller pulley and into the 10s I go! Before that I'm going to do some suspension work and replace the clutch / shifter. I hope with that combo I can get into the tens and then when I increase HP hoping for a 9 second pass. I'm not sure if that's a realistic goal or not but I'm aiming for it.
