Those numbers it will be running at least 8-9psi.

Seems like alot of HP for a stock lower end. I'll probably wait another year or so and see how others hold up...hopefully nobody windows their block.

We have installed a few of these for 2010 SEMA cars and have moved a bunch for 2005-09. The real selling point for our customers on this kit was the OEM level fit and finish. This kit uses ALL OE hardware and connectors. No hose clamps or anything that even looks aftermarket. It is a TVS not a true twin screw so for all out power the Whipple is still the way to go. But we have a decent price on these which may help with the sticker shock.

Plus the added high output kit options and additional tuning can get these things over 600 wheel on a forged bottom end. PM me for details as we haven't gotten our site sponsorship approved yet.............

Could you also PM the cost... For 1000 more its right now not worth it for me. I would rather just get the roush supercharger thats comes on the 427R that has 20-30hp less.

I like it.. a lot... but...

It seems way to tech-coish for me.. Im wondering if Edelbrock bought tech-co's design when they went under.

Gotta love a front drive front breathing twin screw blower though.

These kits will be ready to ship by next week. PM's are sent with special pricing. The blower is entirely different from the Techco unit. Besides is Techco even still around? ;-) Edelbrock was kind enough to bring down not only their test car so we could test it ourselves, but a full blower unit off the car that we took apart and played with for a while. Their heat exchanger unit is HUGE and their water pump is a serious piece. My feeling is they knew guys were going to mod this kit and made sure their parts could handle it. Their wide open inlet design is totally unique to front drive blowers and the inlet has no turns at all. This blower design truly has a ton of potential.

Let us know if you have any questions on these kits or others. We're more than happy to give advise. Besides, with 3 test Mustangs of our own, all different kinds of forced induction, we can give you real world reviews on just any parts available for our cars.

Thanks,
Team Stillen

Also, Edelbrock had their blower out about 4 months before Techco's unit. And since Edelbrock has their own aluminum foundries, their castings are all made here in the USA keeping their casting quality at 100%. Nothing in this kit is made or cast offshore.

You can't go wrong with this kit as it is well designed and easy to install. I have one of the first systems shipped when these were introduced last year (s/n 0007) and have no regrets!
