Lol, guess i was too cynical. then again, had i tossed this into the 05 and up, someone would have said get a whipple and bashed my rear.

edit-- as in the 10 rear you pervs, don't go making that a quote in your sig.

It just looks like it belongs there.

Yeah, that's only a few hundred more than the non-IC Vortech or paxton at Brenspeed. this is the most bang for the buck going. Yates doesn't offer a phone number so i am waiting a bit to see if they send me a discount code. Not waiting too long though, I have $4300 burning a hole in my pocket. Anyone considering this charger, i have had install quotes running from $600 to $1100.

its super tempting. I have half of mind to just order one now. Even though I dont actually own the car yet. Would go perfect with the rousch offroad exhaust sitting in my garage.

The $4299 price is astounding, about $400 less than I paid.

Roush changed the intercooler reservoir for the 10 kit to look more like stock and the charge cooler heat exchanger is massive. It mounts in front of the radiator and is nearly as large in surface area as the radiator itself. The only PITA with the kit is the air intake tube restricts access to the oil dip stick a bit; I can live with that though! I've had it on for about four months now and have experienced ablolutely no issues.

Did you have to lose your strut tower brace when it was installed?

I've never driven a SC car. Does the boost come on only at WOT? With this M90 unit, is there much whine and if so, is it present at all times or only on the boost? I know some people love the whine, not sure I'd want to hear it all the time. Seems like I've read in the 427R reviews that there is very little whine.

Whine will only be present when giving it a good amount of throttle

track pack and 2010's with 19" wheels came with the tower brace
