Default hoe hard is it to installa rousch sc with only supercharger and manifold no parts?

I have a 2005 gt. I see on ebay you can buy a rousch super charger for 1200. with no install kit included. where could a i get a list of parts needed.? would it be cheaper to just buy a complete kit? any ideas?

After muddling through this incredibly well written post title, and looking at the post. I think it would be a very good idea for you to learn a little more about F/I in general before you take on a project like this on your own. There is a lot of info on this board, at least learn the basic components and what they do!

If you prefer to do that leg work, then you need to consider getting a professional to do it all from the start to finish.

I'd say you need to take the model number of the blower and see if you can get a parts list for it.

That way you'll know what you're getting vs. what you need. I'd say go for it, though. It can't be more than 1000-1500 bucks in parts even if the only thing you have is the blower head unit, itself.

Even then, you'd only have 2700 bucks out of pocket MAX. That's a deal on that blower.

And for you; if you're going to tell someone they threw up a bad post before you try to help them, then you might want to proof read yours, first.

Your opening sentence doesn't make sense because it's a fragment.

Punctuation FTL!!!

The guy needs a question answered, not for someone to take a red pencil to his post.

I dont believe an incomplete take-off Roush supercharger
to be a very good deal unless it is free or you enjoy headaches.

I don't see how a 5000 spend is a great deal but a 1200 dollar Roush blower isn't.

Here's the installation write up from Roush:
http://store.roushperformance.com/im...20062708PS.pdf

It's got a detailed parts list. It looks long, but as long as you have the blower, the inlet, and throttle body/spacer, I think you can still come out WAYYYY ahead.

It's all about how much legwork you want to do on your own and how much you have budgeted for putting a blower on the car.

Remember, you're going to want to get a custom dyno tune anyway, so you'll spend the money either way.

Its on eBay and its used.
Probably stolen.
You do the math.

After an extensive search of eBay I
could not turn up this ever elusive $1200
Roush SuperCharger the OP mentions.

I saw it on there the other day. I think it was just the blower, no intake or anything.
