Thanks for the responses so far guys. This would be my first supercharger ever and definitely like the sound of easy maintenance. Cptco, have you ran a quarter mile with your setup? I think 4:10 would be a bit much for me. I dont use the car a lot, and when i do it is mostly highway. Dont want to lose all my top end, just want a little more muscle.... Kyle, are there any shops in nj that you would recommend. I am a little hesitant on going to dealer for this.
I hear ya, unfortunately there really arent any shops in NJ I can think of from the top of my head. If you're willing to travel i would suggest Johnny Lightning Performance or JPC

Kyle, i will look into those places. I have some time before this actually happens, so i have the time to research. My brother is going through an issue with our ford dealer with his expedition, they have been giving him a run around and mainly because they say the job is too intense. Mind you he has a warranty, and already brought it back three times for same issue. He is in the works about claiming lemon. All he wants is truck fixed, which is why he bought warranty and now they dont want to fix it. Just have bad taste in mouth. I will have to find a different ford dealer ehich i am looking for.

fishingfever I know brenspeed in indiana is a dealer for rousch. Very professional people there. If you do go to them they have a guest house that you can stay at. Nice place and its free. They have done all my upgrades including the 302. This last time I had them swap my TCI torque convertor for PI torque convertor. I had my dad pick my car up and the indicator came on for the charging sytem. My dad drove it back to them and when they did my motor i had them install a PA alternator. They replaced for free of charge. I know you wouldnt be close but they do right. Just an option

I was looking into the whipple, but i just feel that they may be a little more intense, maintenance wise, from what i read. I think i may go with the rousch, especially that i havent heard anything bad yet. And usually ppl like to post the bad....lol.... My wife thinks i cheat now and i dont have a sc....lol.... Maybe this isnt a good idea... She will learn to live with it....

whipple is low maintenance. 100k mile SC oil change.
idk what you are reading, but Whipple SC are super ultra reliable
i've had mine on for 7 years, and not one single problem whatsoever
its like it's factory from ford, only better
it outlasted the warranty twice over.
