Default supercharger?

I know as of now there is no supercharger for 2011 v6. But we all know they will come.
How many here plan on getting one and if you do which brand would you perfer?

Me, procharger or paxton nuvi.

If I had wanted that kind of power I would have bought the GT. The 6`er has enough for me except on the very lowest end. Ridding myself of the 2.73`s will take care of that and I`ll be happy.

you know i really get very tired of people here saying" if i wanted that kind of power then you should have bought a GT"

To clear this up for all. Most of us and especially me did not want a GT or a GT500. I wanted a V6. And if I feel like putting 10 superchargers on it , it is because that is what I want to do. So please, for those of us who love our V6 Mustangs and love fixing them up, stop telling me I should have bought a GT. And if you continue then I guess you feel that way. BUT believe me, I am doing exactly what I want.

Not mad but sometimes it does get old hearing the same old line.
"If you want power then you should have bought a GT".

I love my V6.

Stay cool man.

I got a similar problem. But the way I see it, I'm going to do 100k miles in 3 years. Why do I want to spend another $8-10k? In 3 years I'll have a newer mustang, still a V6, with even better performance.

I actually went to a Mustang Club cruiser nite and parked my stang. I had other stangers there looking at it. they all seemed to be really nice people. there were 1965 v8 stangs to v6 to gt500. All had their hoods up.
My point is to just enjoy what you have and let others enjoy theirs as they want. I dont see or hear anyone bashing a 4cylinder guy put turbos, nos and whatever else on their cars telling them they should not do that. Point infact, GT people put turbos, nos and superchargers on their cars. Why do they need all that power. They don't. They just like it and it makes them feel good as it makes me feel good.

okay enough from me as it is somewhat of a sore button.
I go to car shows as i am sure many of you do. The last one we went to, Good Guys car show at Kansas City Speedway, my wife asked,"why do these guys put sooo much money into old cars". I said,"cause they like it and it makes them feel good and they are proud of their car".

I do know I will not ever buy a corvette.

Stang11v6 you misquoted me and had you read what I said accurately you should have no problem with what I said.

My statement was purposly worded so it spoke only for me. I never said YOU should have bought a GT. I said I WOULD have bought a GT. I have the money to have done that but I like the 6`er and am happy with the power levels. Each of us must make our own decisions and I will never try to tell others what they should have done. If you are going to boldface my statements please do so accurately.
