Default installing a super charger

I have a stock 2001 gt and i'm going to install a supercharging system and i need to know what i need to modify on my motor to install a supercharger.

What else could i install with my supercharger to lower my 1/4 E.T.s should i install 3.73s or 3.55s because i know for sure on a blown car 4.10s is too much.
Thanks for the help guys![8D]

everything comes with the SC kit i.e. new injectors et etc..and yes 4.10s are overkill, go for the 3,73;s

...I think with a KB twin screw unit you'll be happy you don't have 4.10's (for the street)

Why in hades would you want anything over 3.73s w/ a supercharger????

I spin thru 1st and 2nd with basically a stock setup. At over 400 HP you would never get traction with a set of 4.10s, unless you are gonna run slicks.

4.10s is MAJOR overkill, unless you are running an automatic. I cant imagine my 1st gear being any shorter that it is now.

My point exactly. I just don't know how everyone manages to get traction with those gears. I am going to sc my car in the future and I'm keeping my 3.27 gears, Even then I am going to have traction problems. 410 and a sc set up. Imagine this: pull up to a light next to a ricer, light goes green, your 245s go up in smoke and the ricer flys by shouting "Mustangs are slow". Stressssssss
