Never had a supercharged mustang, but I would be willing to bet that by the time you factory in a complete turbo system against a supercharger, headers, and h-pipe the costs for both would be pretty close.

I know you don't have to buy those things and don't go comparing the cheapest supercharger and parts you can find so that you can say a supercharger is less expensive. Just trying to make a point, no flames intended.

Also, on my little T04, I've got full boost by 2200 rpm. How does that compare with a roots style blower? If a roots comes in any faster, I bet you couldn't tell it by the seat of your pants.
What PSI are you running on that sucker?? Any dyno sheets??

BTW, not to really start an argument but 8PSI on a turbo kit will kick the **** out of 8PSI from a SCharger!
