Nuke put it well. Even new things break, but they have warrantys. I have heard of people buying used blowers without problems. If you were real concerned you could send it off to the mfg. and have it checked out rather cheaply I would think. I haven't heard of people having blower problems from any make. Doesn't mean it doesn't happen. I wouldn't worry and go for it. Maybe not some ebay thing though.

Dont know where to buy used ones, but maybe find a whipple.

They dont even recommend changing the oil in it for 100k miles.

Should last a while lol

Do you have to do anything to a stock mustang GT before installing a centri SCer, other then the things that come with the kit? I know that you have to install delete plates for some SCers

As long as it is a complete kit, you would not need anything else.
The intake manifold does not even come off for a centri install, so no need for delete plates.
