TurboCharger...
Now I don't know if I was looking in the right places but turbochargers seem to be less expensive than superchargers...I am definatly gonna get a KB in the future...much later in the future 4-5 years...but for now Im looking for a less expensive alternative. Any suggestions about what tubochargersI should look at and if I should just stick with waiting for my Kenne Bell?

RE: TurboCharger...
Sure, the turbo itself may be cheaper, but you own the wrong car if you're looking at a turbo kit. The SN95 body style suffers the curse of turbo kits that cost about twice what they normally should. A full kit will run you in the neighborhood of $7000 or more. You're looking at $2000 in parts (turbos, wastegates, bovs, intercooler, etc etc) and $5000+ in piping. The amount the companies that fabriate these kits get away with charging for just the tubing and turbo headers is retarded. No, the SN95 is not new technology any more, as the S197 is now out, and turbo kits for those cars started at $2500 less than kits for our cars currently cost. It's robbery.
My suggestion, just wait for the KB.

yea just get your hands on nitrous kit...that would be your best bet. Alot of people are scared of nitrous though. In my opinion i would just forget about the turbo option...unless you have plenty of money spend.

i agree, first decide if you definately want to go f/i...if not get some nicely ported PI heads, a intake, and some aggressive street cams. If you want to go f/i invest into a mongoose kit or a nice nitrous setup.

If you did a single kit you would need a T-70 or similar. Go over to turbomustangs.com that forum has tons of do it your self write ups and even a handfull of current projects threads. Many people over there have had great success peacing together there own system from anywhere from 1200-5000$. I am one of those idividuals.
