Vortec T-Trim vs. Saleen vs. Whipple

[RyanAx]

Hey Guys,

I just need your opinion, I found a really good used Vortec T-Trim supercharger ($3000) for a 05 Gt, but some people have suggested that either the Saleen or Whipple superchargers would be more appropriate. What do you guys think?

Cheers,

Ryan

3k is a pretty good price on a blower. is it the entire kit??? injectors, etc.?

If money wasnt an object, i would get the saleen, however if you are in a position to buy a used vortech for 3 k less than the saleen or whipple, and dont plan on having the extra cash needed to buy the others, then id prolly get the vortech. just make sure that its in good working order and has all the necessary parts for the install.

It's up to you cent. blowers make there power more mid-high rpm range where twins are low to mid. Like ZChaos said good deal if it everything and in good working order. I have the W140ax and love it by the 24th I should be putting down close to 600 with stock heads and cams.

It is the full kit; the head unit has 0 miles on it. The guy bought it to put onto his 06 GT but then he bought a GT500 and now he plan s on TT his 06 GT. So he doesn't have a vehicle to put the Vortech on atm.
Money really isn't a huge issue for me, but the T-Trim kit is worth ~$6800 new.
