Hey, to all who know me. I need a little help. Tmrw im installing a Ford Racing supercharger on a 2007 Shelby GT, the dude just traded in his 2006 C6 orange vert Vette for this thing and also just bought a s/c. So i am installing it...how are they ? Decent? Also if anyone installed one im assuming they come with instructions because i cant find the print outs on their site. And im also assuming they come with a programmer. Thanks for anytihng.

Matt aka Casper

it is a paxton supercharger. same brand Shelby has always used. its similar to a vortech. htey can make very good power but its a centri type so its up top as compared to the low and mid end power of a twin screw. you will get instructions to install it but they will be worthless if they are anything like vortechs instructions. missing pages, words, and pictures on theirs. you may or may notget a tune but its a better idea to have the car custom tuned anyway because the base tunes are usually horrible.

I think he means the Whipple/FRPP supercharger.

Paxton actually does have the instruction manual on its site.

I know Paxton used to make blowers for Fords, but that was way before I was born. Twin-supercharged 427 Shelby Cobra FTW! Oh, and the Thunderbird. :clap:

He might have the TVS SC for the shelby. If you do let me know, I have a file for the TVS, Whipple, and KB for the GT500.
