I'm in barren frozen white desolation Saskatchewan. We're colder than Iowa but probably have less tornados.
Can't wait till spring to get the GT and the m/c on the road!
Very tempted to install a blower but thinking of retiring soon - so retire no blower or work one more year and retire blown??

Life is indeed short and not to be wasted. I think 2015 might be a good year for a blower and 2016 to retire. Still like what I do.
I shall have to carefully consider the centrifugal or the twin rotor type when the day comes. Both seem to have advantages at various aspect points. I do like the idea of torque right off the hop though.

Hi all... I'm about to take the plunge and buy a roush supercharger. My motor is stock and I'd like to know your opinions.
I really want to go with the stage 2 625 hp kit and I'm wondering if the motor can take this set up, or should I be conservative and go with the stage 1 575 hp kit.
I know there set ups are very safe so any input would be appreciated.
Thank you

They make 9lb of boost which is still safe, but not until I change the driveshaft !!!

2. how does the blown GT resale value (you never know wht life throws at you, so if my current resale value is 25k, i add 10k with SC... what am i looking at resale value on my blown GT

2) Resale value depends on how well your car is taken care of, mileage and what someone is willing to pay for it.

Agree... In my case, I will never sell so I don't care what the value is. And secondly, people know how well I take care of my car inside and out, aesthetically and mechanically, so, I know I will have no issue selling it here on this forum or locally as I have already gotten several offers (annoying actually)
