Amazing how the gains are from using a stock set up compared to the Edge. Makes me want to buy one. I also wonder why Ford didn't tune these motors for more performance from the factory if the Edge and Gryphon products can squeeze more juice out.

Dyno # are for wing night.

You need to get it rolling road tuned. Who knows what's happening in there? The blower is controlled by the CMC and not Vacum demand like others. This could be screwing you up.

0-60's ain't doing your tranny any favours.

I just bought a Roush supercharger for my 2006 f150 awd and I was reading a forum on the same truck. Someone told me to buy the cams (that cost around $730) and the torque converter with 3000+ stall ($380-$750) but I don't want to waste money on buying this if I really don't need it.. is it really going feel a difference?

Congrats on the blower!

I would bolt the kit in first and start your tweaking after a good amount of miles are on the kit... Cams, headers, and hi flow cats will all help, but cooling down the intake charge and relieving any inlet restrictions will show the most gains for cheap.. (Throttle body, intake, bigger HE and E fans)

So I currently have a 10 SCAB 4x4 with a 5.4L. I'm toying with the idea of a Supercharger but also with the idea of a 13 SCREW with the 6.2L. Any opinions?

Lightning bracket should work just fine.
