I stand corrected on the type of S/C that is inclueded in the Kenny Brown conversion.Originally Posted by SergntMac
I think it's been very civil, and perhaps Logan finally got some folks attention. I have first hand info on Haggis' Kenny Brown package. It's a complete setup, clear back to the rear end, and a good as anything oit there IMHO. Also, from what I've been reading, I like the Trilogy package as installed, and tuned in Lideo's shop. If I was going to add a supercharger, I'd go with the trilogy, because it seems to be a more straightforward, and simple setup, mechanicaly, and because of the plumbing issues with the other setups.Originally Posted by SouLRioT
Why is everyone so afraid of this topic. It never ceases to amaze me that with all of the muscle and performance forums I have ever belonged to, that such a topic is met with angst and consternation! Folks, its a damn car part! If people would just stick to the FACTS and leave it at that, this wouldnt be such a taboo topic. I know which kit best suits my needs, and probably anyone elses needs here as well. If anyone wants to know some facts about my setup, ask away, for others, resist the urge to comment on what I put forth as fact in my situation. Folks need to grow up.
Billy, is right peak HP is not everything. Look at the top three cars in the Timeslip page. Check out the 60 foot times on the roots and the Centrificals.
They all need extra mods to get those times.

As you search will show, there are several kits on the market and all, well installed and well tuned, should do the job good. It will be up up to your personal taste (price, power delivery, installation, easyness to modify and upgrade, service record and so on).Originally Posted by Mike Mielnicki
As Marauder owners, we're lucky to have quite a bit of choice given the fact that our car is rare and not built anymore.
But if you're looking for a PRO kit, and don't want CHARGED too much, well, the choice is yours !!!
I'm with Dave on this one. I don't think we should be afraid of the topic it's just that some people go with the attitude of "if you don't pick what I picked you are wrong"
So my opinion, from someone who has driven all of them except the procharger, is.............
you are a mechanic so I'd say all kits would be easy for you to install,
If all you do is S/C the car the Trilogy makes such a difference in torque at low RPM that its a great choice all by itself.
Kenny Brown will do the conversion for you, he won't sell you a kit (last I knew)
DR's kit is the one I have, its watercooled and I was willing to do more mods like 4.10s and 3500 RPM stall to help with the off the line. So its great seat of the pants and never stops pulling at the top end.
I have not driven a Procharger but from what others have said and what I have read it's as good of a choice as the others.
If I was you I'd wait a bit and see what happens with the turbo kit, maybe because its new it has my attention.
I have spoken to Dennis, Jerry and Greg and they are all great folks who will make sure you are happy with their product - so no worries there.
And yes I am very happy with my kit, the car is awesome. Every one of these cars are great when supercharged. And you could put any of these on your car without other mods and they will make a huge difference as well.
Want more PM me.
with luck I will be the first to have a tri-carb set up on mine too -

My suggestion would be to come to Marauderville III and check out all of the different supercharger options, it sounds as though every type will be represented. Each are unique in their own right and each will put a grin on your face.

I don't understand the supercharger rivalry that goes on at this board. I've been a member on the Mustang board since '96 and have seen and participated in many a "which SC is best thread" and I don't remember any that have gotten as out of hand as quickly as the ones over here do. I'm not saying that it doesn't happen, just that it is a rare occurance.
Anyway, I had both types of SC's on my '97 GT that I just sold. I started with a centrifugal(Powerdyne) and ended up with a roots(Eaton M112). As far as power went they were both outstanding for the motor they were on. They both have their pluses and minuses, I won't go into that as most people have covered that on other threads here. But if I had it all to do over again, I'd buy a turbo if it were not too much more expensive and was a good quality kit. Its hard to argue with getting as much HP and way more TQ than a supercharger and making that power with less boost. The lower boost should mean less stress on your engine if properly tuned. JMHO
