So from what I read, correct me if I'm wrong but; I purchase the GT550 manifold from DOB. Use their throttle body and their radiator but the rest I can purchased used? I've seen a "new" M122 blower on eBay for $800. Maybe it's cheap Chinese stuff. I'm not 100% educated on the GT500 blower. Still trying to learn all I can about my options.
The Canadian dollar sucks right now, so even the TVS Roush Stage 2 installed by a local dealer is $8750. That's their quote on the ad for a Roush Stage 2 for the F-150.
A few mustang guys said their cost was just about $10,000 for dealer install.
I wouldn't mind getting some used parts and saving some cash where I can, and be all in for $4-5,000.

I have no issue doing a MS group buy also.

You know adrenaline rush you get right before a roller coaster takes off? Or you're about to see a new girl naked for the first time.
That's the feeling I get from reading this thread and thinking about supercharging my mustang!

I was reading the product page, it says that 2011 and early 2012 need some grinding to the timing cover.
Does anyone know if any cutting what so ever needs to be done on a 2013 GT model?
Has pricing been posted? Id like to see some options.
Also i believe lund will be doing the tuning... Do we need to already have a handheld tuner?

Can you please post a link to the group buy and possibly include pricing!
If you have a copy of the install instructions i wouldn't mind checking them out as well.
Im interested in the "bosses" that need to be clipped.
Also this sounds like a very cost effective way to supercharge for guys that don't have big bucks to throw down. I see there were I A T numbers, but were there dyno numbers?

Still having data transfer function issues with the 2015 tune. We made some software updates over the past few days and changed where some signals are coming from. More runs tomorrow night.
This tuning thing on the new car is frustrating. If we did the first kit on a S197 we would have been done months ago.

Well I'm probably going to be waiting until next summer to boost this thing anyway..just hoping progress is going well! I've got the engine tick and some trans issues I want to get taken care of under warranty this fall first.

My buddy did a Bolton procharger it, cost him around 5k but really clean install looks great. Now ! He has 2012 Boss & suppose to handle 800hp on stock block but clutch would need upgrade so he stood with around 600-650 hp. If your stock block GT is in good shape then don't push it past 500-550 hp the crank & rods won't be safe after that. I hve lightning with SS Crank but stock rods R the weak point so, I don't push it beyond 13lbs boost4 lb pulley & 4way tune. One big issue with superchargers R detonation you better hve a good tuner or YOU will grenade block also a safe cold weather tune is essential less timing more fuel. TYI
