Bought Roushcharger
Well I have been saving for some time for a supercharger for my 2010 GT and have finally pulled the trigger. I was originally going to wait until after Christmas to get one but I came across an offer on ebay and got a powder coated chrome Roushcharger kit for an absolutely killer deal. I'm going to have to wait until after Christmas for the install but I am excited to say the least.

I saw that Roush had a big discount running on the chrome superchargers, way less than they are selling the black ones for.
You'll have to get a bunch more underhood bright works to go with it now!

Yeah they have, unfortunately none have been for the 2010 specific kit. The cheapest I'd seen is Yates Performance that are selling the black 2010 kit for $4,299 and chrome for $4,655. Got mine for $3,500 with free shipping.

I'd been noticing a few 2010 kits floating around for around $4k. This one was on Ebay for $3,799 and I made a best offer of $3,500 while I was at work during the day. Had an email come into my phone in the evening saying I'd won the auction and I just about spit my beer everywhere. I originally intended to get the black Roushcharger, but the chrome will definitely look nice under the hood.

Up and running yet???
GT500 CAI should be no problem, just need a custom tune for it.
I would upgrade the throttle body as well to the GT500 unit, you can get new ones CHEAP.
Superchargers love it when you lower the inlet restriction.

Congrats on getting blown!
Any 2009 S/C kit will work on a 2010 ... The vendor may not have a tune for it so you will need a custom or mail order tune.
I'm putting a 2009 SuperShaker on my 2010 (CyberMonday Special) - Christmas present to myself and my Stang ... I called Saleen and they have a 2010 PCM tune for the their standard 475HP VI series S/C but not for the SuperShaker. They also told me they don't have one in the works either .... bummer.

You could probably make it work but there would be some parts needed that won't be on the 2010 car. Plus the long snake of a air inlet on the 2009 setup looks goofy.
JDM Engineering has a great tune for the SuperShaker on a 2010, Jim Jr. had one on his 2010 when it still had the stock motor in it.
