I just installed the new paxton sl. No oil line to the pan, self contained oil in the unit. Got through summit for 2300$ and put in on there credit card and i pay 76 bucks a month for it. Took me a lil bit longer than expected to install had to make up sum custom brackets since i have no a/c and crap, but worth it.
Really? Send me the link to the one you got. How much PSI and was it mostly bolt straight up?

I had an ATI a few years ago on my 93, took some time to install andmade good power. It think it made a lot of under hood heat (compared to a buddy with a Vortech)

If I had to do it again I would go with a Turbo kit, stock 5.0 are making close to 500 !!
More power less $$$

Yeah but turbos are more difficult to install and are a bytch to maintain.

I have installedthree mustang SC's over the years plus my intercooled ATI, pretty sure the fox body turbo isnt any more invloved. Since I dont have a turbo(yet) I not sure why a single turbo car would require any more maintenance?

Igot a kb on 6 psi 2.2 on 94 5.0 only other mods were a k and n intake, h pipe, flows, 70mm tb and stock gt40 lower intake. It made barely over 50 hp, but a ton of torque as said, but that large of a supercharger really needs to be run higher psi to see its potential, it came alive alot more when i cranked it up to 10 psi. I plan on running same amount now after i installed steeda 19 with 1.7's gt40x heads and summit shorties, hoping it runs pretty strong after its all dynotuned out.
The general rule of thumb is 10-15hp per PSI, so that's pretty much right on the money since KBs aren't big HP makers on 5.0s. I'd up the boost to 9-10psi and I think you'll be pleased with the numbers, especially after the head/cam swap.
