Some background first. I've had my 2000 GT since new and have added practically every bolt on possible over the past 2 decades (including 4:10s). Its had its up and downs over the years and right now it is in pretty good shape with 91,000 miles. Still gets complements when I am out and about. I am getting the itch to start modding again and have done a few things recently: new headlights, lowered it another 3/4", and some new floor mats. Its a quick car with a best of 13.3 in the 1/4 mile at 101 mph, but that was a long, long time ago (2003).
I am itching for more power. New mustangs come stock with 460hp compared to my car, at best, around 285hp. I really don't want to drop $20k+ plus on a used mustang or spend $5k on a new supercharger for a car only worth $4k. I would like some advice on finding and installing a used supercharger unit. I have poked around, but given the age of the car, used systems seem hard to come by. Has any one done this in the last few years? I am not looking for big power. I would be happy with 50-75hp, especially given the mileage on the engine.
I am trying to find a "low cost" solution. I stumbled across this really old link with some good info.
