I am a 1st time Mustang owner and am having a great time upgrading my car. I have a 2006 4.0 V6 and am thinking about installing a Procharger supercharger. Can anyone give me reasons not to.

what other mods do you have done to your car, is there alot of money into it allready?

About 3k into it. Fog lights, dual exhaust, cold air, diablo tune, lightbar, and a few other cosmetics. I shied away from the V8 due to insurance cost and sticker shock. I am happy with the V6 performance so far and believe the upgrades I've done have added about 20hp.

if you got that much into it, you might wanna stick with it.

The v6 will never be an 8 but you can do almost everything to that motor that you can to the v8, one big exception is better heads (you can get head work done though), otherwise i say have at it and be different

If you are happy with 300-325 rwhp then keep the 4.0 V6, but if you are wanting to make more HP than go with the GT.
I would keep the 4.0 and go turbo or S/C its a fun ride.
