Gabe... If a schmuck like me can successfully install a supercharger, a stud like you can do an even better job than I ever could. Save the money (am guessing 1k to 2k to pay for install?). On top of that, the supercharger installation was the most fun I have ever had working on a car in my entire life. And I truly mean that.

No, not Pete, he doesn't do installs, his cousin next door does, but somebody else anyway, somebody that's done a bunch of them, and will also install the new gauges.

No, wrong Patrick. Tony and I have a member Patrick in our car club that just had a black Vortech kit installed in his '13 GT and the place did a horrible job

I know, I really wanted to do it, but it's just gonna work out better this way I think.
The guy doing it (for nowhere near the numbers you mention ) has done a bunch of them, has been a Ford tech in the 70's and been working on Mustangs ever since. Owns 2 himself right now, including a Terminator.
I'd be a fool to not have him do it, especially for the price I'm getting and the quick scheduling I'm getting.

Grew up in El Paso. That dust coating is all too familiar to me.

I agree; What brand antenna is that? I have one too, but I think it's a different brand. I don't remember what the brand is.
