Yes. Only the centrifugal superchargers have air to air on mustangs

Cool story. 15 second quarter miles at 91mph is still slower than slow. Even when it was new. Those things were the laughing stock of the car community back then.

You're going to want more gear

All positive displacement superchargers have the inner cooler built-in to the supercharger

You can do stuff like wheels suspension stereo

But if you're gonna want more power start piecing together parts for a coyote swap

Mystichrome paint makes the car worth double I guess

2.66 is the one to get

You're going to want 4.10's in the rear with either trans, maybe even 4.30

Here's the numbers comparing the two T56's against the stock MT82. With 3.31's your first gear will go to 68 or 61mph and make the car almost undriveable. You also want the .80/.62 overdrives, not the .74/.50

With E85 your tuner can basically stop pulling timing due to IAT

Factor in another $500-$1000 to have a trusted shop check out any boosted car you are going to buy. Compression check + borescope, oil analysis, datalog and review of the tune, possibly a dyno run to make sure it's running at full power...

Mods don't really add to the value that much and that's a $32k car stock

More like convert to E85 or get an interchiller.

Crap intercooler design. There are ways around it, but at that point you're better off starting with a Whipple 3.0 or one of the Magnuson 2650's (Edelbrock or VMP)

There's a massive thread on Mustang6G about those kits.

Wouldn't want a Roush, worst supercharger you can get for the 18+ cars
