Okay, here is the question...

I need help from people with any brand of Supercharger.

I bought this mustang because I got tired of wanting to drive my classic and because it is 40 years old this year, it always seems to need something worked on. So, I wanted a nice looking car to actually get in and turn the key and have it run with no crazy issues coming up at the least opportune time.

Having said this, will I be asking for problems installing a Supercharger, or are they really as streatable as they seem?

What's your opinion?

 

and I can spell streetable!

 

thie all streetable.what kind of streets do you plan on driving on. i pfer twin screw.saleen for me

 

I don't really drive it too much, mostly local streets, and occasional assaults on the interstate. I just want to make sure that you don't have to constantly maintain it or baby it. Sadly, I have no S/C experience and not a lot of time or practical experience in working on one.

 

Saleen Series VI with H.O. kit on my 07 with 4000 mi. Not one problem. The dealership master Ford tech said the best kit he's installed.

 

Twin screw is the way to go for sure. That means Saleen, Kenne Bell, Whipple, Roush et al. The reliability loss won't be the Supercharger itself but the inevitable reduction in motor life expectancy.
If the car isn't your daily driver then I would say that you'll be fine for many years to come.

 

I've been asking the same question as well. Saleen has a great 6-7 psi kit (475 hp) with new injectors, Extreme intake tube and new MAF, and their PowerFlash. This is the kit they use on their current production S281 SC's. Should put about 410 RWHP on 91 Octane.

Brenspeed sells kit variations using the Saleen Series VI, which include an Xcal2. With Saleen, you have to send the PCM away to them to install the tune.

I myself am torn between Brenspeed, or the straight Saleen tune 475 kit. The Whipple HO and KB kits are tempting as well. To many choices.....but you probably can't really go wrong with any of them.

 

if you want a turn key solution, one that once
installed, you would never have to lose sleep
over......

saleen series VI, base kit (400bhp).

anything else is a trade off for BIG power and possible
loss of sleep

 

WRONG!!! Roush is not a twin screw. It is a Roots blower. The twin screws would be the other three listed.

 

I love the twin screws and would go with any of the above mentioned.......soon to be whipple charged! Taking forever to come in to my installer
