I'm wondering if any of y'all have had any experience with supercharging the 5.4? What I'm looking for is recommendations for units. Right now it seems like my 2 best choices are either the Roush unit or the Whipple. They're both pretty close in price and I think that installation is pretty similar as well...so at the end of the day I'm looking for folks that know one from the other. Is one more reliable? Does one deliver more hp and torque? Roush says that you can keep your warranty, is that only if an "authorized" shop installs it? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]
I’m going to be ordering an ’08 and the first mods are going to all be performance so any and all comments and suggestions are welcome including other performance parts for the 5.4...everything except nitrous anyway. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
Thanks!

You'll have better luck with this type of question at The Other Ford truck site.

Yeah, I've been poking around a bit over there (at the other Ford truck site) and they did have a good multi-part write up on installing the Roush unit, maybe I'll post something and see if anyone has any suggestions.
And you know, as much as I like the idea of the V10, there just ain't no replacing the sound of a hopped up V8!
