'11 Mustang GT Hellion Turbo Kit at MD Speed Shop!
That's right a turbo kit will soon be available for your 2011 Mustang GT. The kit runs at six pounds of boost and produces a whopping 540 RWHP and 600 RWTQ!!! It features a 64mm Billet aluminum turbo wheel for ultra-fast spool times. A ball bearing upgrade is also available.
Call or PM me for turn-key packages. The kit is also available in a "tuner" version without injectors or a handheld tuner
Pics soon to follow.

I got a few buddies with 61mm twin hellion turbos in their sn95's. Hot **** those are quick! The single 64mm kicks *** too! Cant wait to see what sort of hell they unleash woth these new 5L engines
Yea, I'm looking forward to seeing the dyno to take a look at the torque curve. Biggest thing I'm curious about though is what if any lag there is since they are only pushing about 6psi.
I'll be completely honest in saying I don't know much about either. The biggest difference I know of is a supercharger is always providing boost, but since it is belt driven there is some "parasitic loss". All that really means is you are losing some power to turn the screws. With a turbo being spun by exhaust it takes a certain rpm to get it to spin enough to get any boost, time between pushing the gas and getting full boost from the turbo at least used to be referred to as "turbo lag". There tends to be more lag with the higher boost levels, 6 psi it shouldn't be bad. The bonus of the turbo is you tend to get a bit higher numbers at the tires pushing the same amount of boost as the supercharger.
Again I don't claim to be an expert on this and my facts might be off a bit, but those are pretty much the basics. If someone else wants to chime in that knows more feel free to correct me or add more.

Most turbo systems filter air pretty well. But then again i guess it depends where you have em at. Down in the lower fascia i dont think it would be too much of a problem really but idk for sure

I know there has been a lot of controversy about the location of the intercooler. I spoke with Hellion briefly about this.
They said the reason for the intercooler being located there is because the consensus from 2011 owners was that they wanted a turbo kit that didn't require cutting up the front bumper on their brand new car. The intercooler can be lowered very easily, but will require cutting off the lower valence. With a turbo kit running six pounds of boost the heat levels are low anyway.
Hellion also mentioned that where the intercooler is located is pretty much industry standard on any air-to-air forced induction system for the S197 chasis.
