Thought this was a great write up if anyone was thinking about Supercharging their new 5.0.

Very detailed write-up. I would love to to supercharge my 5.0 one day, maybe when the warranty runs out.

Not sure, but I believe there is a dealer install option for the whipple and or Roush TVS that wont void your warranty. Might look into that.

Here is the article with the details

"The Specs

Each of the three versions of the supercharger kit includes a 2.3-liter twin-screw supercharger, intake manifold, intercooler system and high-flow fuel injectors. The baseline, 525-horsepower kit generates 7 psi of boost and includes a Ford ProCal tool to reprogram the electronic control unit. (If an authorized Ford Racing dealer installs the kit, the factory covers the powertrain with a 12-month/12,000-mile warranty.)

The kit we tested, which delivers 624-horsepower, features a smaller pulley that allows the blower to spin fast enough to generate 9 psi of boost, along with a corresponding calibration set. Unfortunately, the extra 99 horsepower pushes the 5.0-liter V8 close enough to its limits that Ford offers no warranty with this kit. Amazingly, both kits are calibrated to be 50-state emissions legal. ''

Who needs a warranty when you want to go fast?!

Dealer Install FTMFW!

Damn Jarrod I may have to look into this! Can't beat the sound of a supercharger whining. Good info...
