    Question Supercharger kits

    I know looking through the past threads that some kits have come and gone so im just gonna ask. I am looking into options to supercharge the Marauder and I was wondering what kits are out there now? What options does one have?

    LOL! what ever you like as long as you can gather the parts and make it work, kits arent really an option any longer unless someone sells there Trilogy kit, or you go with an eaton swap.

    A centri build from scratch is just too exspensive! Trust me!!!!!!!!!!!

    AFAIK, no "kits" out there since Trilogy ceased selling theirs.

    Options:

    DIY Eaton swap (including Whipples and Kenne Bells), using '03 - '04 Mustang Cobra intake components and the corresponding blower head (i.e. OEM Cobra Eaton M112, or aftermarket Whipple or KB)

    Vortech, either DR installed or DIY (contact - http://www.reinhartautomotive.com/)

    DIY?? Procharger (contact - http://www.procharger.com/supercharg...ecommend.shtml)

    Ok, so i was right in my belief that Reinhart is the only one offering a turn key supercharger option.

    DR is the only SC (Vortech) kit for the Marauder that is available. But lately he has been having issues; long delivery time. Months (8+) for a member in NorCal. Adtr.net in SoCal has a Vortech kit for the Crown Vic's they are willing to modify for the Marauder.

    I'll have the final figures when it's done. Mid 4 K's. Like I said, I've had a lot of good friends and luck on some purchases.

    It also depends what your end goal is. Do you want a strip MM or a fast DD on the top end.
