Default TOO MANY MILES FOR SUPERCHARGER

I HAVE 2006 GT WITH EXACTLY 30,000 MILES THINKING ABOUT A SUPERCHARGER JUST WONDERING IF 30,000 MILES IS TOO MANY TO PUT A BLOWER ON,WOULD THE ENGINE BE ABLE TO HANDLE IT SINCE I HAVE BEEN DRIVING SO LONG WITH OUT A BLOWER.

Mac,

I have and 06 and I added a Whipple HO kit at exactly 30k, no issues to date! Think of it as it a coming of age think, dont look back and enjoy the power.

Here's a link..

as long as the motor hasn't been trashed for 30,000 miles you're fine. if anything the motor is broken in now if you're really that worried you can compression test the motor and see if it's in spec but you know how you drive and if you don't abuse it constantly I wouldn't worry. personally if my car had 30,000 miles I wouldn't hesitate to boost it.
