After reading(various other web sites) how pleased several C4 owners are with their supercharger add-on (ProCharger/Vortech...etc), I think this will be my next summers gift to myself.
Yeah, I know it will cost for another tune...but hey, it's only money (can't take with ya you know).
Let's hear from those of you with a supercharger add-on...how do you like it?

What is this "custom tune" you speak of? Who did it and how did they do it?

192 rwhp with a 1996 seems low. What a lot of guys will do is increase the load on Mustang dynos during a baseline run and decrease the load after mods to make it seem like the owner got a lot of horsepower. You should be around 240 rwhp stock, if not a little more.

My stock LT4 got 311rwhp on a dynojet when I first got it.
A newish LS1 (C5 manual) got a 314rwhp the same morning.
An LT1 should churn out a solid 260rwhp if its stock and not worn out.
