Hey I have a 2012fx4 5.0 an I'm looking into a supercharger, http://www.roushperformance.com/parts/F-150-Supercharger-50L-Tuner-Kit-2011-2012.html
What do u think about this one, and is this the only one out there?

Roush is top notch. Other than that, go with Whipple. Joe what do they use on the GT Mustang, the 5.0L new models?

The 2.4 Ford Racing whipple. Bad ass boys. Just plane B to the A

I thought it was a Whipple lol, somebody's in love I think haha. Gonzo, just go find a wrecked new style GT with the 5.0L and take the supercharger from that, probably cheaper and it'll work the same I think. At least you used to be able to do that on the 4.6L V8's.

Well the GT does not come with a supercharger unless u order it that way. That is the blower they put on it when u order it that way. So finding a wreck GT with a supercharger on it is a needle in a hay stack lol. Roush, Ford Racing, Kenny Bell, and whipple make plenty of power with that motor. Just gota find your power range that matches your price range. Lol

Got it!!! Just gotta find that needle!!
Jersey_Joe
01-11-2013, 07:15 PM
Lmao. Go for it brother. If u have any ? Leme know. B glad to help
The only problem with finding one on a wreck is having it tuned too. IMO just hit up Roush. You'll get everything you need with a warranty.

Shelby needs to do trucks too lol, that would be ****ing awesome.
Agreed. I've been looking for a 09+ Roush production truck, but I guess they're just in the parts biz as far as the trucks go.
RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 12:22 PM
There's so much potential there though.

Shelby needs to do trucks too lol, that would be ****ing awesome.
Shelby does make Trucks. U just have to order em. Purchase from ford then take to them. Sorda the norm. But yes very bad ass
And! There is a 09 roush 150 stage 3 in glassboro nj. Place is called good wheels. I passed it. It's bad ass. Don't know what they want for it but u could check there web site
Hmm never seen such a thing. I'll look her up.
RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 12:41 PM
How much for the Shelby Trucks?
Prolly 35,000 on top of the base truck price lol
RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 12:51 PM
Probably more haha
RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 12:58 PM
$100,000 total probably.
I'm guessing the 75,000 range
RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 01:01 PM
Depends on the model.
RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 01:10 PM
Yup, I wonder if they'll still do an 05...lol
RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 01:19 PM

RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 04:58 PM
Dammit, wait that's what happens in the world today, the reckless and irresponsible get rewarded, and the responsible trusty people get s*** on.
RhinoZ24

You ruined it by saying please lol
RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 06:22 PM

RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 07:34 PM
Do I need to make an offer you can't refuse then? Lol
I'm not sure where you're going with that, but I guess so lol
RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 08:29 PM
It was a mafia thing...
RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 08:57 PM
Yeah, but now that you know I'll have to get rid of you, sorry but nothing personal lol jk.
RhinoZ24
04-01-2013, 09:06 PM
Yup lol
You aren't gonna have me make my own special shoes? Are you?
RhinoZ24
04-02-2013, 09:10 AM
Maybe, you'll just be on break and your guys will come in and start pouring cement on your feet. Then you're going to the nearest water source lol. Sorry. Haha jk.
Hahaha break. I don't allow many breaks.
RhinoZ24
04-02-2013, 09:39 AM

RhinoZ24
04-02-2013, 12:25 PM

RhinoZ24
04-02-2013, 01:19 PM
Joe's just going to go dig a hole and we're throwing you in there lol, buried alive haha jk.
Better get a whole crew to try and get an Irishman somewhere he doesn't want to be lol
RhinoZ24
04-02-2013, 01:34 PM
We'll just throw some whiskey and some steaks down the hole lol, that'll get you there.
Damn you know my weaknesses lol
Jersey_Joe
04-02-2013, 03:06 PM
I was gonna hang some cookies from a rope and whistle. Lol
Jersey_Joe
04-02-2013, 03:27 PM
Lmbo
Man you guys know all the tricks lol
Jersey_Joe
04-02-2013, 03:31 PM
Lmao
----------
I like cookies. Fig u did too. Lol although beer and whiskey is a good try too lol
I was into the steak idea. I decided I want Kobe filet tho
RhinoZ24
04-02-2013, 05:58 PM
So we'll get one of those too lmao.
RhinoZ24
04-02-2013, 10:25 PM
You've just sealed your fate lol.
If you don't get me my ol lady will lol
RhinoZ24
04-03-2013, 07:30 AM
Lmao, she's the back-up plan
It'd be easier to make her the primary lol
RhinoZ24
04-03-2013, 05:14 PM
Good point, btw you may want to avoid her from now on lmao jk
Jersey_Joe
04-03-2013, 06:33 PM
U can always "supercharge" your 5.0. Mmmmmmmmmmmm
3396
It is a supercharger thread. Just sayin lol
RhinoZ24
04-03-2013, 08:44 PM
You know he's the turbo man lol. We need to get him the Hellion kit.
RhinoZ24
04-04-2013, 11:36 AM
The kit has twins, plus a supercharger lol.
Too much boost for stick internals.
RhinoZ24
04-04-2013, 12:58 PM
So get a stronger block lol.
I'm probably better off with what I've got. I may get in trouble with the law with too much power lol
RhinoZ24
04-04-2013, 02:41 PM
You said you drive like an old man lol, you'll be fine haha
Most of the time that's true, but every now and then a mans gotta play a bit.
RhinoZ24
04-04-2013, 03:58 PM
Oh yeah, going 5mph over the speed limit, looks like we've got a badass over here lmao jk jk.
Hey that's pretty darn fast lol
Jersey_Joe
04-04-2013, 05:00 PM
Doesn't hurt to run her threw the gears once in a while. Lol
RhinoZ24
04-04-2013, 06:14 PM
Yeah, gotta make sure 5th and 6th gears get used occasionally lol.
She goes into 5th above 30 and 6th above 42. You guys know I can't just old man it all the time. I gotta hammer down and let her breathe now and again.
RhinoZ24
04-05-2013, 11:35 AM
Well just don't get your heart rate up too much buddy, wouldn't want to hear your heart gave out from all that excitement lmao jk.
RhinoZ24
04-05-2013, 11:51 AM
Lol, man your gunna be living dangerously once you get it tuned lol.
RhinoZ24
04-05-2013, 09:33 PM
Lmao
Looked at a few forced induction videos on YouTube today and I still feel turbos are the way to go with this motor. Of course it was only mustang 5.0's, but the turbo motors were faster and more efficient by quite a lot.
RhinoZ24
04-05-2013, 10:26 PM
They are nice, I just like the whine of a supercharger though. That's why you get both lol.
I'm not saying superchargers aren't cool. Just not as efficient of an idea since you're using the power if the motor to create the boost.
RhinoZ24
04-06-2013, 11:43 AM
The one major downside :(
Jersey_Joe
04-06-2013, 02:41 PM
Yep
True. But when the motor is bad ass. Have at it! Lol. I liked em both and couldn't make up my mind. Can't u tell? Lol
RhinoZ24
04-06-2013, 02:46 PM
No never Joe lmao jk
Jersey_Joe
04-06-2013, 04:22 PM
Right. It's called plan B! Lol
----------
Mr Shelby. God rest ur soul. U did a great job. Just had to add my own trimmins. Lol
It's the gear head in you. Can't ever leave well enough alone lol
Jersey_Joe
04-06-2013, 08:48 PM
It's the gear head in you. Can't ever leave well enough alone lol
I can live with that. Lol. Ok. I'm gonna use that fer my excuse from now on. Thanks cuz. Lol
RhinoZ24
04-06-2013, 11:18 PM
We're never happy with what we have, we always want more (well car wise lol)
Exactly. Except that excuse just makes my ol lady more bitter lol
RhinoZ24
04-07-2013, 12:08 PM
I wouldn't doubt it lol
I just keep on using if tho lol
RhinoZ24
04-07-2013, 03:22 PM
Of course haha
It's almost like I like getting her riled up lol
Jersey_Joe
04-07-2013, 05:16 PM
It's almost like I like getting her riled up lol
R u kidding? If I had a car that went as fast as rilling her up. I'd b a world champ. Lol. Believe me. I've had her climbing the walls. I did the flip kit on the Shelby and all the trimmins. Then. The motor in my truck. Now my dirt bike. And I haven't even started the Harley. Lol. That will b a cute thread. Lol. I feel ya homes. But it's always gonna b a little gratifying twistin em up. Lol. We get it enough. It's only fair. Lol
RhinoZ24
04-07-2013, 06:44 PM
