Let's say you've got a current generation Ford Mustang GT that doesn't get you excited any more and a couple grand taking up space under your mattress. Roush Performance can solve both of your problems with the addition of a new supercharger dubbed the TVS2300 ROUSHcharger. For around $5000, Roush will provide you a kit of parts which, when properly assembled and tuned, develop more than 700 HP. Holy. Crap. The cool part about the kit is if you already have a Roush supercharger, this kit can take advantage of some of the parts and save you cash. Details, and musings after the jump.
We're going to get serious here for a second. This kind of thing should almost be illegal. For the cost of a used 'Stang and five G's, anyone can rock out with something like 700 HP? That's insane. That's unbelievable. That's making us reach for the Autotrader!
