As the title states above. I know that it depends on the amount of boost, trim, and so on. But who has the cheapest charger for somebody looking to get a few extra horses. Actual HP #'s do not matter. Price is the main thing in my budget.

Thanks!!!!

Parts, labor, safe tune. There is no cheap supercharger. I have the SVO from Ford Racing. It was the same cost as any Vortec or Paxton without the intercoolers. Best I could find was 3K for supercharger and install kit, labor was extra. Tune was $500.00

theres cheap, fast, and reliable, you get to pick two. Cheap and superchargers usually go together like collard greens and chocolate syrup. Just because the kit is only 3000, there are so many other things that can go wrong that you have to be ready for. Not to discourage you, but if you are really going to have to budget everything you have to get just the kit, you've forgotten about the tune, extra money incase the worst happens. Now if it were me, Id have to go with the Cobra Killer kit. I dont think Tim has lost a motor yet. The kit is a little more expensive, but I wouldnt have it any other way. I also believe hes really into the Kenne Bells now too. Good luck, I hope im not to discouraging, If you want something bad enough, you will get it. So just work for it, save a little longer. And remember cheaper isnt always the best thing.

T&J Performance Base Mongoose Kit. Hands Down! I've been researching this for over a year with the same priorities as you.

You get a Reliable Vortech Supercharger, a safe tune from one of the best in the business, and everything you need to complete the job. No ups, extras or any "oh, I thought you knew you needed this". It's complete. Period.

www.modularfordpowerhouse.com

And they stand behind it. They're friendly, knowledgable and will walk you through the entire process. The base kit is not the most powerful out there, but you said that wasn't your highest priority and you can add onto it later as finances allow.

I appreciate the feedback. I'll just have to start pimping my wife.
By George I will have a S Charger one day. My wife isn't bad looking so maybe it won't take too awfully long.

Thanks again.
