Ford Unveils Three Supercharger Options for 2011 Mustang 5.0
http://wot.motortrend.com/6678827/af...-50/index.html
Seems a bit pricey to me, but man these hp numbers are going crazy!
The Ford Racing team has taken the wraps off three different aftermarket supercharger options for the 412-horsepower Mustang GT.
The three blower kits are 50-state-legal and are good for different levels of boosted power. The nine-psi option helps develop up to 624 horsepower on premium-octane fuel, while the lower model does 525 horsepower on seven psi. The supercharger is a twin-screw design and comes with requisite support modifications, including a new intake manifold, intercooler, belt, and higher-flowing fuel injectors.
The third option is a Tuner Kit for racers and what Ford calls "extreme enthusiasts." There is no power figure associated with this selection, so we figure the ultimate performance numbers are left to the Mustang's owner. The forced-induction trio are being revealed at the Woodward Dream Cruise and are available now.
"Superchargers are the ultimate in power upgrades for Mustang enthusiasts," says George Goddu, Ford Racing Performance Group Manager. "Calibration for a modern V8 engine, especially one with twin-independent variable cam timing, is incredibly complex. Production calibration for the 5.0 engine took 19 months. Having that knowledge base to work from is a huge advantage."
The specifications are listed below:

That was the first thing I noticed - no warranty on the 9psi version.
Everyone would spend the extra $300 for the 624 horse version if it had a warranty.
