That's probably the nicest 2003 u'll find. I don't know what the prices are like but that's a lotta $ for a 12 y/o car.

These cars do not depreciate . It's insane. My friend just sold his '06 with 175K miles for like 9 grand.

Only a dyno sheet will prove that claim.

Used cars with aftermarket blowers are a dicey proposition. I had a Dakota R/T with a Vortech V1 for a while. It wasn't fun.

TRD's stuff is a bit more OEM like in terms of reliability than aftermarket.

I don't see why 118hp from a supercharger on a 4.7L V8 is dubious.

I get that. It's still easy to screw up. And they still have to prove the HP gain at that price.

If I had that money, I would be on the road to Nashville right now. On the pulley it comes with, the TRD supercharger only adds like 80hp though.

A quick search for a dyno shows 120rwhp and 80 (ish) lb-ft gained on a Dynojet.
