2016 GT/CS Forced induction or N/A?

[Yoonie]

Hello everyone last year I bought a 2016 GT/CS Automatic with 3.55 gears and so far I am loving the car (only 5k miles on it so far) I have a few bolt on's and thinking of adding supercharger or maybe twin turbo setup or maybe just adding the gt350 manifold and e85 and leaving it N/A. Now is there any kits you guys have added and any problems you guys have had? I Would like to hear everyone's opinion that has gone forced induction what you think is the best kit and how reliable it is ect. Also maintenance once you go forced induction what's required for lets say turbo cars vs supercharge cars. I am keeping this car for a long time so I want it to last as long as possible. I heard they can handle 750 at the crank without issues but I want to hear some stories or experiences you guys have gone thru.Thank you and hope to hear some good info.


(Random stuff about my car)
Here is some pics of my car I did change the spoiler on my car to make it look different from the rest of the GT/CS also my GT/CS badge on the back broke and dealer quoted me 1k to repair so I said no to that and instead got the howler badges and used MMD deck lid panel instead. So I think it looks unique but to each there own I guess lol. Also wish it would of came with brembo brakes or with brakes that said GT/CS or something, disappointed in that( I bought some brake covers don't really like em but the reg brakes had bunch water/salt marks that would not come off and looked ugly). I also included dyno sheet how much it made after it got a tune with Headers/CAI/Tune 4th gear pull not 5th for safety reasons. The guy said add 5-10 more hp that's how much you are most likely making, they just don't like doing 5th gear pulls since by then you are at max speed ect. Unless you ask for it that is I just didn't really care I was happy with the the 417 to the wheels with an auto trans on 93oct.(at the time now I want more hp)

It just broke from closing the trunk/normal use and it was hanging by one plastic pin which caused it to leave scratches on the deck lid and it looked like it was going to fall off any second. So I called the dealer they told me the earliest they had an appointment to just look at it was 3 weeks from then which is really long imo but nothing we could do so we just waited. Now my bf tried to fix it but like I said 1 plastic pin was holding on to it. So instead I broke the emblem off so it wouldn't fly off while I drove around and possibly hit someones car. Well after the 3 weeks went by took car in to dealer they kept it for 2 whole day and they told me that they could not fix the emblem since it looked like someone tried to 'steal it' and I would have to contact my insurance for them to replace it since warranty wouldn't cover it since it looked tampered with. Then he said if I didn't wanna contact my insurance it would cost 1k for the part alone without the labor. I did try talking to other ppl there and they told me they would call me back and nope never got a call back so eh w.e I like the howler badges better now.

It was Tomball ford service department they have really bad reviews on yelp 1.7 stars lol and no I didn't think of taking pics of it at the time I was going thru some family issues and that was the last thing on my mind. Kinda regret I didn't think of it at the time.
