I wont repeat what JJ said but dependability has a lot to do with the tune and how you drive and take care of the car. The thing I like about the Roush/ VMP and Whipple setups is the low maintenance that comes with them. Turbos net you more power and torque but require a bit more work and upkeep.
The new 2.9 whipple is going to be a beast of a blower for these coyote engines but in all honesty, every blower does very well on this platform. But, I like the OEM like quality of Roush/ VMP and Whipple.

My old GHIG GT has a CPR (I think) single turbo running 9.4-9.5 @ around 150mph.
Turbo's are cool and all but I prefer a supercharger.
I did get one picture with my phone though.

Just how low can you go on the roads you have to drive?

Springs....Sweet
As for me...What a frick'n day! One thing after another...Anyway, long story short I need to get an auxiliary pulley system for more belt tension...The belt was slipping and with that the numbers weren't where Dan and I expected....Right now looking at around 653/611....Should be around 680HP...I'm ordering the METCO Auxiliary Pulley and will take it back....Steve can fill you in on the "Work" we did....LOL

Started out this morning planning to install my new P springs. Ended up helping my Father in law install ductless A/C units in his house.
I did take him for a ride, he's a mustang guy from the sixties, he said he'd never ridden in anything like mine before.
