Specs on the turbo setup? Bottom end? Hell yes it has a lot more in it!!!! Your mustang and its progression/setups is one of my favorite i've come across since first falling in love with stangs.

This is all preference but I love that whine of a kenne bell. I usually you tube bad *** cobra to listen to that black cobra whine as he drives like a douche lol. With that being said, I'd probably go centri for a blower mainly because of cost. Just my two cents.

Wont argue with denial anymore. I honestly dont care to start beef but you were acting like a little bitch and somebody needed to say it. If you don't like KBs thats fine but absolutely nobody here cares for the little 6 year old side comments every time a kenne bell comes up in conversation. Outside of this i've never had any problems with your posts period and i've read a lot of them. I've learned a fair amount about my trans from you. You usually provide good info on autos and I read that and i'm not trying to create tension. You have your head slam filled with your ego and that's clouding logical judgement and acceptance of facts. You are so touchy about KBs its reminiscent of a 6 year old girl.
Post your dyno chart with your Vortech on that 385RWHP setup. Lets compare. Go ahead.
You did not trap 120+ when that car was at 385RWHP.

Thats a fabrication. I do absolutely believe you're running great times as it is and have far more experience than me at the track. I do agree that I am a drag strip noobie. I have always been 100% honest about that on this site. Drag times just arent that important to me. Its not why I have my car. Problem is not everybody measures their ***** by how fast they run on the track. Just like yelling, doing it louder doesnt make you more right. Running faster times at the drag strip doesn't make you more right about supercharger comparisons.
Kenne Bell owners have low stalls and launch at ~3K RPMs all the time. Its called a flat power band....something you won't ever have.

I like my powerband to actually increase with RPMS. If I wanted that ultra cool flat powerband I would go buy a KB, but I decided turbo would be far better.
I actually love KBs and have already said that, I just dont think they are as fast as centri cars and can not touch a turbo car in the long run.
Heres me trapping 121 and 120.5
That dyno is literally the same setup I ran 11.35@ 121 with....
had some problems with keeping the converter locked for w/e reason but ended up making a run with it through the gears without trying to force it to just lock in third and with the car not heat soaked all to hell and it made 384 rwhp.
Its pointless to show that graph cause the lines all over the place, either way, its a stock pi longblock on 10-11 psi, thats spot on for an auto with that setup.
Like I said, theres numerous people on the forum that have witnessed it...I have no reason to lie, it surprised the hell out of me too but that doesnt mean it didnt happen.
I would like to see your dyno sheets as well.
Just for ****s and giggles, heres with the edelbrock victor jr on top of it

My final dyno with 60 lb injectors, perfect air ( 30 degrees out) and revved it to 6400 rpms,( that dotted line to the right is 6500 rpms) notice how the vortech keeps making power and torque even at 6400 rpms....bet your KB cant do that. 
Anyways, let me see some of your dyno sheets...wanna see all this low end hotness

lol, u no in OC ? u mad bro?
Love youIm not mad, just baffled by some people. I had 100 people tell me I was crazy when I said my car would run low 11s with less than 400 rwhp. I proceed to complete said task, STILL people saying it didnt happen lol. wtf.
The funny thing is I literally ran the car one night on slicks to get those times, wasnt even like ive been 100 times tuning the thing to get every last tenth out of it and its been my DD from about 2006-early 2012.
