I thought I uploaded this video that I made to my build thread already but I guess not. So here it is. A video with some of the forum members that I made when we took a cruise out to Mississippi. Enjoy.

Those Forgestars look great! Don't see those too often either.

Thanks man I appreciate that! Ironically enough a guy on the forums who lives not too far from me has them on his. When I saw them on his car it was love at first sight lol I also then stumbled upon a deal I couldn't pass up and was able to buy them. :headbang:

If you had a chance to run against the Roush, how do they compare as far as performance?I know both cars are different, but any thoughts would be appreciated.

We ran twice that we didn't video, [MENTION=17459]altjx[/MENTION] may have some of it on his dash cam. It was both from a 50 roll and I walked him both times. He's got like 601rwhp and is heavier. I think the Roush Phase 2 gets the car up to 640-650 but I am not sure. As far as performance goes I think that will come down to preference. Alton can weigh in here I am sure.

Can I ask why Whipple? any reason from "they have a cooler logo" to something more legitimate is fine, just wondering to help in my own research for a charger!

Hows this affect your mileage btw?

I did not buy it because it has a "cooler logo" even though it does, but for me I have always wanted a Whipple. I looked at their supercharger compared to other PD's cause I am not a fan of Centri. I have owned a Kenne Bell in the past and love their products. I was on the fence on whether or not to buy a Roush or VMP and it really came down to personal preference. They will all make similar power, I just had to go with Whipple's reputation, customer service and the front feed blower itself. Roush's and VMP's blowers are carry over items and they require a small bit of fabrication to fit whereas the Whipple just dropped right in and not to mention it's just so damn sexy looking! You can read all day on here about people's opinions and what the better supercharger, for me it was all about my personal preference.

Mileage....what mileage? lol You will have your foot in this thing a lot so mileage will not be good. I have forgotten about mileage I just know gas is cheap so I don't mind paying $25 to fill up my tank and I drive the car once to twice a week. I've owned it just over a year and just hit 6,400 miles with the majority of those coming since I put the blower on in the beginning of November. Hope this helps you.

Haha I was just kidding about the color, cool ok.

That's a lot of PD experience. Any thoughts on pro charger while we're at it from your own experience?

I have zero experience with a Procharger. It is a very good system and affordable, that is about as much as I know. I have a friend who runs one and is very pleased with it, but other than that I couldn't help you much with it.
