I would like to procharge mine down the road. I got the boss for a great deal, it would have cost me another 15-20k for a Shelby. I dont want a pre-2013 shelby because I dont like how they look, and the boss is a great candidate for a supercharger with its beefed up internals and higher redline.
I had a Procharger on my '05 GT and it was nice. Had some minor issues with it throwing codes and never had a chance to get it dialed in before I moved and had to sell the car. The nice thing about it would be the ability to keep the Boss intake manifold.
Pro charger is my top choice because 1. I don't think this car needs any more low end power and 2. I want to keep the pretty intake manifold.
I'm staying away from vortech/Paxton because of the possibility of them breaking in cold weather.

Breaking in cold weather? Never heard of this....
I am leaning toward the procharger just for that reason keeping my stock Boss intake. Also installation looks to be easier and less mods to make it fit the motor. Going to pull the trigger any day.

very first page of the manual. says under 25 degree startups may cause supercharger failure and its not covered by warranty.

I keep going back and forth about going FI. After a few autox runs it seems like a SC would just upset the balance of the car. I'm finding that I'm already having issues with keeping the tail in line as is. Maybe it might be a better fit if I was doing more track days...hummm.

All I can say is tax refund is way more than I thought it would be and I have been eye balling the pro charger since before I bought the boss. There was a twin turbo boss on eBay last week for 58,000 if I remember correct. The only thug that might keep me from going FI is getting the cobra jet intake and then shoot for 500hp Na I think that would be cool
May as well get a pro charger or positive displacement supercharger and not worry about it
