considering a supercharger..???

I have 63,300 miles on my 4.6 2v engine. It is my everyday driver and i have been looking into superchargers. Would it be dumb to supercharge an engine with that many miles?

You should be fine. Just make sure everything is in good working order.

Definitely go for it. I put on my supercharger at 80,000 miles. Two years and 48,000 miles later its still running strong. All of the tuners I've talked to say to limit a daily driver to 370-380 rwhp.
