Default FI dilemma

Well the time has come to add boost to my 2v. I have 2 deals set up and want opinions on which is better. I can get a V2 SQ kit for 4500 OTD with everything including tuner (basically a mongoose kit plus a couple hundred for dyno time and a couple hundred for install) OR I can get a used D1SC with a 3 core intercooler kit that was used off their shop car for the same price. The Procharger has a little under 6000 miles on it.I made sure the oil would be changed and everything is inspected andthe shop specializes in prochargers and autocrossesa supercharged 408 Mustang so I'm not worried about the reinstall, but is that too much for that many miles? Suggestions please!? thanks!

Why dont you just go with a mongoose kit? Mine otd was about $4500, that includes the blower, install, dyno time and tuning.

I think I might end up doing that since the D1 was off their race car and not a test mule that's 6,000 HARD miles.

that used one would probably be ok, but to be safe, the mongoose will get you as much power as the stock block will hold safely anyways. I'd go with that.
