Also you don't have to repin anything as the kit comes with a plug and play harness. No BAP required with the Stage 1 or 2 kit as well. Just injectors needed. And the VMP stage 1 kit is $6000, the same price I believe as the Roush. All VMP kits come with an SCT and a tune from Justin. Arguably the best tuner at tuning these Roush blowers.
Also the VMP kits come with a modified snout to run smaller pulleys I believe.

You can always go one step up on the blower and tone it down with pulleys. Making it work much less and produce more power with less boost pressure. Lot more efficiency also.
Justin Starkey made 830 with his boss and a 2.3 I would think 900 would not be attainable at that point it's time for a Whipple 2.9 or a 4.0

Stock Internets is what I meant. Your car would not live very long making 800 on stock GT internals , it may blow up on the dyno..lol

800 on the dyno wouldn't be an issue, especially on if the barrel has no weight. On the street would be very different. Also, 800 on these cars, for them to even make it would need a spot on dyno, E85 or methanol... still wouldn't last long at all lol

If you're looking for cheap and dependable, I would get the vortech tuner and 80lb injectors from Stage3 and email tune from Brenspeed. I looked at every combination and I think that's as good as it gets. Mines in the garage ready for install. ~4900 total, mine was ~4700 with military discount.

That's what the idea of a supercharger is. Turbos have to spool to make power, the rest are instant.

The three most popular choices (efficiency, rotors, etc.) are the Roush, the Ford Racing 2.3, and VMP TVS.

Of the three, the VMP TVS makes the most power, as it's already optimized by being ported, and such, and is complete, i.e. VMP will remote tune it to make the best power.

VMP is about to debut the 2nd generation TVS with a HUGE inlet to the rotors, so it's super efficient.

I'm waiting for that.
I'm planning on getting a supercharger for my 2011 and I'm going to go with VMP. I have been emailing with a sales rep over there, who i must admit has been very quick with the responses, even over the weekend. He said the Gen 2 isn't due for another 8-10 months. And most likely will only be for the gt500.

But im doing The VMP stage 2. Seems like a great deal and i've heard some great things about the guy that does the tunes over there.

For what its worth i've seen plenty of people talk about their roush setups and say they don't see a real gain until they get a tune from VMP, so skip the middle man and just go with a VMP setup. I am no way affiliated with them i just have been researching a lot lately.

I will also be doing a build when i get my kit within the next few weeks.

Thanks! Should be fun, was planning on selling my pony at the end of the summer for the 2015 but over the weekend looking at her all clean finally after the winter and how much work i've put into it. It'll be hard to let her go so I'm skipping out on the 2015 for now and going supercharger.

Gotta wait for some funds to clear and hopefully ill make the purchase either next week or the following week.

I went with the stage 2 VMP kit and it is very hard to beat. I got the JLT big mouth, smaller pulley and HD intercooler from the start instead of adding it later, plus VMP has a ported elbow. A few parts were missing and VMP overnighted them. Very happy with what I have. The high scream when accelerating is something to behold.

I plan on getting close to the same setup. stage 2 within a couple weeks. I dunno what size pulley he went with but I'm going with the 82mm which should be 10psi.

Awesome man. Let us know how it goes!
Yes,....I do believe the 82MM is good for 9.5/10psi
