I am going with a Pro Charger for my 06 GT with pulley upgrade. This is a centrifigal intercooled system. gives power on the mid to top RPM. May save a little on gas when cruising around town. The twin Screw is low end RPM. I would look at Whipple HO if you want the looks of a twin screw. As for Turbo there will be a lag because you re relying on exhaust (which you will have to change).

lag? not if the turbo is correct for the application....even with the very small amount you can break boost the car and build 10 lbs easy...works for me..lol

Default Supercharger price?

How much is the average price for a supercharger, including parts and install? I know this is hard to say but what price range would I be looking at? This would be for a stock 06 gt.

what kind of supercharger are you interested in? do you have a brand in mind? centrifugal? positive displacement?

I've had a nitrous mustang, driven a supercharged mustang, and now I just did a turbo on my current coupe. All I gotta say is I wish I would have done it earlier. There's alot more involved w/ a turbo, fuel, timing, turbo sizing to match the engine, and of course the tune. Once you have all that dialed in, its one nasty ride.
