How much difference does a supercharger make ?

[Coyotes55086]

Hey guys, so I'm looking at Supercharger kits. And I just want to know, how big of a difference does it make in the ride after they installed? How noticeable are they? Is the difference actually night and day ? Can you justify the price for them

Whipple stage 2 here and definitely night and day difference.

Think of the acceleration you have in 1st gear. That is the same kind of acceleration you will experience in 2, 3 or even 4th depending on your transmission and gearing. The comment above of increasing hp by 70-100%. Night and day.

Yes the supercharger is a night and day difference. There is a reason the manufacturers use them. For those of us that have them, of course we can justify the price.

I've had Whipple, Procharger, Vortech and Roush. All good. All change the car and make for lots more fun. Good tune is the most important part. Ford spent, and spends millions on getting just the right tune for your coyote. The tuners cannot afford that kind of money and time so the ones that get it right are very important.

Does the car feel significantly faster and more powerful after the upgrade? Where do you notice it the most?

Post #3 answers that question....for me I would extend that into all gears, given I have a manual. I notice it mostly above 4k rpm or so, compared to natural aspirated manual shift 5.0's I have driven. I would suggest trying to find someone will a well tuned supercharged car to give you a ride.

Edelbrock on a 2020 and yes...night and day. Like having your thumb (or right foot) on a thermonuclear bomb when you want it. Or "need" it.

It's a good thing....

Basically naturally aspirated you can take out a Cars and Coffee crowd but BOOSTED....Mustang Week Crowd

Buckle up and hang on! Seriously, had a 19 GT PP1 6 Speed. Couple of engine mods-maybe close to 500 Crank HP. Lots of suspension work. Car was just flat fun to drive and handled fantastic. Traded up to 19 Roush RS3 6 Speed. Night and day difference, Now have upgraded cooling system and Roush Phase two flash. I'm not big on hard launches, but have to tell you rolling into throttle with TC on and you are just keeping tires from breaking lose even with it cutting timing. TC off and hang on because the back end is going to cut lose on you. This car handles and drives great. I have a couple of twisty roads in the area and it puts a big smile on me every time I run one

I've had a 2650 Supercharger in mine for around year and a half and i still think its bloody awesome and ridiculously fast....in a good way

How do you guys put the power down? Stock power on a 2020 6spd burns the tires at the top of 1st and 2nd. I’m sure better tires would make a big difference...that said, my dad has a 2007 GT500 with just an intake/tune (probably not even 500 wheel hp) and fresh 305 Michelin PSS aren’t enough to use all of that power.

Drag radials and modulating the throttle.

I just installed Loki and Boundary OPG/CS on my 2020 6spd and it's awesome! Dyno'd at 662rwhp/537tq on a Lund 93 pump gas tune and drives like stock if you use common sense with the throttle.

I'm running MPS A/S3+ on a 19x10+35 square setup and no issues. If you mash the throttle every time you accelerate then yes, you'll spin tires all day long. However, still lots of power and torque on tap without having to get into boost every shift.

Actually just finished a 40-minute commute this morning in rain from the hurricane, some ponding in spots but, overall no problems driving in rain with decent tires. And I took a scenic road trip last weekend along Skyline Drive in VA and car handled great. So thankful for hill assist when sitting in heavy traffic on the steep mountain inclines for over 40-minutes to enter the park. Clutch foot had a workout that day lol

It's even more of difference than Night and Day.
Think of Impulse power and Warp 9.
Or after having and driving a Super charged car and then drive one without the blower.
Really depressing and your asking, " Where's the Beef"
