Default Supercharger? Who makes the best unit?

With so many supercharger units out on the market for the 05-07 GT, who do you think makes the best bang-for-the-buck? I'm thinking about added one to my car, but would like to hear from others who have added one what they like and dislike about there supercharger. Also, if someone knows the names of the companies that make a unit for the 05-07 Mustang GT, that would be nice to see.

Do a search on Superchargers.. and you will get days worth of info..

everyone is different.. the choice is up to you and your tuner guy

your tuner guy is THE KEY.. to it all .. trust me..

JDM has and does good work with the Saleen .. in the 10's last time I looked ( or close .. has been awhile since I looked )


best of luck

I would go with kenne belle just because not only does it give you a good power boost but it looks sick as hell


Question : im a fan of superchargers but is there a reason why you choose to go with SC rather than turbo chargers?

if money is not an issue, i would wait for a good turbo setup.

for superchargers, i'd go with either a kenne bell or whipple

Well let me make very simple for you. Vortech is the best!

Just kidding.

Pretty much every SC out there can destroy your engine if you boost it high enough. The car is the limitation, not the blower.
I love my Vortech but if my local tuner would have been a good saleen rep, the outcome would have been different.

I would use the guys locally that can give you the best support.

I don't think I have ever heard of anyone going out there with a crappy blower for the 05-07.

all the tunersaround me wanted me to go with vortec or procharger, i went with sallen, they had an interesting tie ith it at first, but know its fantastic, im in the 11s on a 4lb pully, 3.5 psi and on stock injestors and all and still make 420 to the ground, i wouldnt have done it any other way, and my blower is quiet, so most dont even know im s/c,and it sits so clean in the engine bay, nost people dont even realize thier lookng at a s/c until it registers when they see supercharger on the blower. i love it, but i also love keene bell, i love the way it screams at 14 psi on the truck, gets me going everytime

VOCOAT...your ride has a nice aggressive stance. What tires are you running in the rear and front?

SORRY TO HI-JACK!
