Streetability Question of M-6066-M117 S/C Kit from Ford Motorsports

Folks,

I am considering installing the above mentioned FMS supercharger kit (the 550 HP version) on my bone stock '07 GT 5 speed. My Mustang has about 25K miles and doesn't get driven in the dead of winter. My question is how sreetable is the car after installing this kit? By streetable I asking about the reliability of the car after installation of the kit. Does the installation of the kit reduce the reliability of the car by any degree? It would be great to hear from someone with first hand experience with the 550HP FMS kits.

Thanks

Depends on how you drive it. FRPP tune is spot on the money so aslong as you have good gas the engine will be fine. If you drive like a knucklehead you will burn out the clutch and if you through on a set of drags or slicks then plan on the rear end to go BOOM. For street driving you'll be good.

More like whimper, but yeah, the rear end will be toast.
