What is needed to complete the installation:

You, the customer will supply the smaller parts for the kit to make it complete. In most cases there are lots of options (fuel injectors for instance). All of these parts are easily attainable and inexpensive. The list below represents a basic/easiest install and “matches” the instructions. You can go with different parts with different performance envelopes (heat exchangers for example) and build yourself a more aggressive kit if you want to.



Supercharger/Throttle body/Cold Air kit:

Stock GT500 blower and elbow. It is easy to overspend on a take off blower.
Stock GT500 Throttle body
Stock GT500 CAI and air filter (any GT500 CAI will work though). The 2010+ units work fantastic so they are the first choice.

*****It is easy to overspend on the blower/TB/CAI. If you don’t already have one or can’t fine one stupid cheap we have new/take off blower/TB/CAI combo’s for $585*****

Fuel System:

Stock 47lb/hr GT500 injectors. Almost any “Mustang injector will work though as long as they are 36-52lb/hr. Used sets can be had for $125-150

Installation and Tech Support:

Complete installation instructions available

In addition to that there is Department Of Boost staff and the core group of Department Of Boost customers that are effectively available 24/7 to fill in the few blanks you may have on this very forum.

It’s probably fair to say that with the combination of the instructions and the number of previous customers that are willing to lend tech support the Department Of Boost manifold/supercharger kit is supported as well if not better than other blower kits (try getting XYZ blower company to answer the phone on a Saturday!).
