The SC seems to work great. My only concern is its affect on the long-term reliability of the engine, clutch, tranny and differential.

A supercharger robs power to produce power....a turbo converts wasted energy which is released in the form of exhaust gas. If someone can come up with a turbo for this beast it will be awesome!! Keep you eye on Mark DiGrappa....he has a good model and some really good executioners under contract.

Going to have to agree with RT, you miss with a moded Stang you better not have money on the race. A mustang can build so much power with alot less money then a S2000 ever could, I know I had an '87 GT with over 500hp naturally aspirated and wasn't putting in alot of money doing it. Just watch those that are too willing.

It's one of the better bang for the buck mods for our car, but I was disappointed in it. It only increases the engine's peakiness, which is opposite of what I'd expect in a SC, and didn't feel as much stronger as I'd expected.
