RE: Kenne Bell supercharger installed!
I would recommend some Nitto 555 R's for you, just a mild DR and they are good for about 15,000 miles. The MT ET Street radials are the best IMO, but I would not recommend them with the weather situation in the northwest. I practically grew up there when I was younger and have tons of family there.

It isn't a "loss" because he never actually put that HP to the ground. Crank horsepower is an easier way to guesstimate the amount of HP you are producing. It all means the same in sense, kind of like saying I have 100 cents instead of 1 dollar.

Dude - I know how you feel. I did a very similer mod with the Whipple a couple weeks ago. Have the SLP LongTubes & "X" too. There is nothing else you can do to a Stang that will give you the same feeling as "Getting Blown", specially with thee low RPM boost of a twin screw. What I can't understand though is , how do you use 1st gear with that 4.10 gear - that has to be a RUSH!!!!!!!!!! I still have the 3.55's and have considered 3.73's, but don't know if its worth the hassle as I don't hit the strip either - just like alot of HorsePower to play with 
Congratulations and let us see that Bad Boy!

The 2.6L Kenne Bell supercharger has increased my RWHP to 443+ HP, with 419+ torque. That equates to an amazing 575 HP to the crank. Of course it's raining here in Portland today so I didn't experience the full effect on the road. Looking forward to seeing what it can do.

Yes, I have heard both. The -15% would echo what the KB web site says. So, most likely that/you are correct.
