Looking for a Roush M90 supercharger kit. Any year would be fine, but I prefer 05-06.

The kit needs to include everything to do a complete install, except for the injectors and plugs.

My budget is capped at $2500, but I may have some wiggle room if the deal is right.

Not really interested in other blowers, but if you have one within my price range then post up anyways and I will consider it.

I have the funds available now and would like to buy a kit asap!

Thanks!

I definitely agree with you on the turbo Mike. I just don't like the ground clearance issues that some of the kits have and I don't trust myself with the luxury of turning up the boost anytime I want. Knowing myself, I'm sure that I will want to turn that baby all the way up and pray my motor doesn't let go, lol.

The M90 will keep me happy until I'm able to build up a stout motor.

But then you have to buy an all new blower setup after you build the motor. More $$$$.

Having done the "incremental upgrade path" thing before, I can say with 100% certainty that if your future plans include going beyond the power capability of the M90, then continue to save your money and do it right the first time. Don't just throw a blower on your car because it's cheaper than going with a built motor and better blower. A few years down the road, you WILL kick yourself right square in the nuts once you see how much money you've spent. That's why I've not bought LT Headers yet. I'd LOVE to have them and enjoy the power gains from them, but if I end up going turbo, they're an upgrade I shouldn't of made.

I appreciate both of your comments and I completely understand what your getting at. My overall goal at the moment is to have no more than 450rwhp and I am looking to keep it that way until it's time for a new motor, which won't be for another 100k miles or so... god willing. I love the sound of the M90 and it gets me to the power level I want so to me it's a suitable choice. However, I am definitely open to other options. I know I made a comment about not wanting the luxury to up the boost at any given time, but if I find a good blower for a decent price I will jump on it. I can always run a larger pulley or underdrive the crank to regulate boost levels to get me where I want to be. I'm actually looking at a P1SC at the moment.

The M90 is a very nice match for the stock 4.6 3v. I have one off a wrecked 2010 Roush 427R and they made a few nice upgrades that year. Running high 11s/ low 12s with 1.6-1.7 sixty foot. It's an absolute blast to drive and I almost look forward to catching red lights so I have an excuse to roll through the gears again on take off. :snoopy

Been almost a year since I was on a dyno and I've made several upgrades since. Probably about 440-450 to the wheels now.

That all sounds great, right where I would like to be. Hopefully I can find one at a decent price!

M90 is an awesome blower. Free bump!

Thanks!
