I was in my wife's Escape this morning when I chased down a Screaming Yellow 2005 Mustang GT Coupe. It had the Shaker hood scoop, blacked out hood, CDC black chin spoiler, Mach 1 stripes, black Bullitts, CDC ducktail, blacked out decklid, rear window slats, black spoiler, Vortech blower and intercooler. I gave him a card; I'll try to get pics soon.

Me either. Make that orange and my poor Mach may not be around. (don't tell her that, though).

I forgot that it also had quarter window scoops. Cervinis maybe? I didn't really care for those...

Talking

I didn't know that they had made a kit that allowed you to have a supercharger along with the shaker hood scoop yet. That is freaking AWESOME!!! If you can, try and get the dude to take a pic of the engine.

There were cars at SEMA that had the shaker and a blower. I call it "Shaken and Stirred".

Your're killing me here. I sooo sooo miss my 99 GT. I'm trying my darnest to build this V-6 into something it's not. Maybe my wife will see the light, and let me trade up next year to a 'real' stang. Meanwhile, I got Paxton, on my mind

Does the shaker "work" or is it for looks?

I don't know. I think my posse and paparazzi that follow me around might've tipped him off.

I respect what he's doing. Sounds a lot like my own car. However, I've yet to see an efficient and workable setup with a supercharger and shaker, so I'm quite curious about that.

Is the one on that SEMA car a Procharger? Doesn't look very efficient, you'd be picking heat right off of the headers.

I'm willing to bet MSP will slap you down if he ever reads this.

I try to be discreet, it just doesn't always work.

Personally, I'm going for 'Stirred, not Shaken'. For some reason I can handle the idea of putting a blower on my motor, but can't get myself to cut the georgeous sheet metal.

I figured I would have done it by now, but destiny has conspired against me and keeps delaying my Saleen SC purchase. Grrrrrrr

But... it will happen. That I'm 99.99% sure of.
