Help deciding on next mod
And as far as supercharging, I am going to sit down and do some hardcore number crunching. If I get a supercharger, I want a twin screw/positive displacement blower. The min on that with install and all is going to be close to 4k, right?

EDIT: I think russell may be right. I may just wait until I can afford a roushcharger. I see a full non-intercooled kit on craigslist for $2500. I can do the install myself without a lot of trouble, and then get Eric Brooks from ModularFords to tune it for me. His cost for a supercharged/turboed dyno tune is $500. So do you guys think it's safe to say that I could be supercharged for 3 grand?

Depending on the clearance you specifically require, I see no problem with a 1" drop (Steeda Sports). I have a Roush front/chin/rockers and I'm lowered with Steeda Sports. You just may have to adapt your driving style. I don't but I don't have a steep driveway or the like. I can take pics of clearance and do some measurements if you'd like. Just let me know what info you'd like me to gather for you.
I'd be interested to know the clearance of your front bumper for comparison. I posted a pic of my clearance right above you. But all this talk of saving money has me thinking roushcharger. If I can save 1k, I can save 3k. I told my girlfriend that I was thinking about supercharging and her response was 'oh lord'. lol. she knows how I am once I set my mind on something.
That's my next question. IF I save for a supercharger, going by craiglist, would 3k be a feasible amount to save to get one? I have always liked the Roush M90, and there is a complete used kit on craigslist for $2500. I can do the install myself(I have read the vortech manual at least 20 times, there won't be a ton of difference between it and the roush as far as engine modifications go). I would take it to BrooksSpeed for tuning, which is $500. So isn't 3k a good number to shoot for? of course it may be $100-200 over that in missing parts or unforseeable circumstances.
