Feelin Guilty...

My friend came home from college this weekend and brought her boyfriend. Well he drives a 2001 Supercharged Mustang. So I was like let me drive it so he threw me the keys. So I hoped in a GEEZ! I was made very happy, that thing hauled a$$. I felt guilty for liking it so much, still would never get a mustang, i dispise the interiors, but geez it was fast.

Anything supercharged better be at least quick. Even if you supercharged that six you would haul ***.

Don't feel guilty, just because they aren't that fast stock doesn't mean they aren't fast supercharged!

That boost you got from your intake is all in your head. Youll get a boost from the full exhaust, a noticable one most likely (no idea what stock diameter is). Your car your ideas if it were up to me id get an 8er if i were you and your goal is to really go fast. If your goal is just a daily driven vehicle. Hey stay with what you got. But if you wanna go fast its either get 2 more cylidners or wind up spending a lot more on 6 than if you had 2 more. Insurance up the ***? Get liability and dont drive like an asshat.

If you say so superchargers arent cheap. Plus then he has to change pistons if he wants to boost alot so his compression is real low, plus a lot of other factors. Its not like oh lets just throw a super charger on it itll be fast. Leave the engine building to the big boys

If its all in my head then how come 2 people i didnt tell i had the exhaust said that my car felt faster? Im 90% positive i can feel a difference. It had to, i took out like...5 pieces of the stock intake and added one thick as hell tube with a filter. How could that NOT make a difference?
