Kenne Bell Or Magnuson Supercharger For My 2005 Mustang GT


i'm going upgrade my stang but i can't decide what to get. also i'm going to get the JBA exhaust sysytem=from the headers back. One more upgrade i'm doing is getting new tires and rims i think i'm getting 18" rims with th BF Goodrich T/A KDW NT. i just got an email from steeda stating the i should see 395 to 415 RWHP after the installation of the Magnuson charger. Anyway let me know what you all think.

The Kenne Bell is a great supercharger for it's type, and it's tried and true. Aside from what I read about the Steeda Mustang's supercharger I don't really know much about the Magnuson but it looks good. What's the difference in price? If they're the same I'd go with the Kenne Bell.

i vote for the magnsun. they make very very very high quality stuff. they have been mostly working with the ls series of motors for the vettes and f-bodies but they make a great supercharger. not knocking the kb as its tried and found to work great on the stang, but i wouldnt think twice about putting a magna charger on any of my cars

I am 95% sold on the KB, I think the scalability has huge upside. I will be placing my order anyday now...just trying to get all my DD done.

the cost for the kenne is $6450 and the cost of the magnuson is $5465. Its about a grand difference. with all the mod i said previously it would be around 9k thats a pretty hefty price.

the magnuson blower is a fine blower. it also makes more power with less boost than all of the other s/c so think about that. they are both good and either will serve you well

I looked at Magnuson's website and do not see a kit for the 05+ stangs, do they have a kit and just not have it listed on the site or is it a D.I.Y type deal?

Here's a vid of a new Magna on the Livernois 05 ronaele getting dyno'd.

It's got WAAAY to much whine for my taste, and 375 rwhp is pretty low, but I'm sure it's a very safe tune.
