Same here, I am here in Iraq and I was looking a Supercharger for my deployment present. I've reading a lot here with X-charger and almost buy it but now I am leaning toward getting a GT. Money wise, it's not practical for superchanger and your not getting close to 300HP. Used that money for a GT.
When getting a supercharger, you're also need to do other mod in your car. if u added it all, it better to get a GT.

So... I have watched this about 100x:

For boosted 6 owners...a simple question. Would you do it all again?

I am a bit concerned about long term reliability as this car will be my dd for many years to come. But this seems to be a solid product.

So what say you? Yes or no? Can you expect 80-100k miles of use on the Xcharger?

Yes that is if you can afford the payments and insurance to do so. But you will also have better resale, less stress on the motor, and most importantly the warrenty!!!! Warrenty would have helped me out a ton haha. It does for the vette anyway.

And at least with the DOHC V6 3.0 that the Misu has it could reach HUGE numbers with only a few changes/upgrades...and they started at 300+hp to begine with...and AWD! Sorry I had to throw that out there! I lok forward to seeing what Ford will do. If they can't do better than a car that's already...17 years old (91 was the first year) then they should just give up.
