Hi guys,

I know this has probably been asked a zillion times, but here goes:

I am shopping for a s/c. My mind has been made up on the roush s/c because of warranty. But is this really a good choice? Also, I like the look of the super chargers like the roushes. i don't like the hair dryer look at all. Are there any s/c that sit on the intake like the roush does, and is a lot cheaper? I looked on google, i ran circles.. thanks for the help. If buy a roush s/c is a bad move, i'd like to know before i do it. I may do it in Dec instead of Feb is why i'm asking.

 

if keeping your warranty is a requirement AND
you want an intercooled system.....then
the roush and base saleen kit, are your options

-
if you decide you don't care about the warranty,
you can go with saleen stage 1+, kenne bell, whipple,
or steeda-magnuson

 

I believe that even with the Roush and/or Saleen kits, to retain the warranty it has to be installed by Ford............

 

Eh, warranty is over rated.

 

No offense....but you really need to do your homework here. Personal preference and finances play a big role into choosing, but there are so many different options out there and factors that one must consider.

I, however, would choose the Whipple. I only hear good things about them, very positive gains. They look awesome (especially the high polished ones). I have also heard Kenne Bell makes a damn good supercharger too.

Roush? Eh, no. Not for me.

The Roush is old school tech and less efficient than all the twin screws, they call it a hybrid roots system. Do you want to drive a hybrid. If you can get a warrenty and that is a must for you; go with Whipple or the Saleen. You will not blow your motor with 8 psi and the stock tune with any of the twin screws (I have never heard of it anyways).
I found a dealer that is "mod friendly" so I was not worried about the warrenty. When I did have a problem with my TBthey replaced under warrenty.

 

I didnt know whipple made the type tht fits over the intake, i thought they were all the hair dryer looking ones. Thanks man, i'll have to google some whipple stuff and read up on them.

 

here's a whipple

very nice! I must be google challenged, when i search for s/c i get the worst built websites ever, and 90% say call for pricing we are the cheapest, or some crap like that.... i'll keep at it.. in the mean time, don't be afraid to post good sites that offer s/c's for mustangs.
