Try searching the V10 forum. You'll find plenty of threads relating to Supercharging the mighty V10.

I had my Kenne Bell installed by a local speed shop. The installation instructions for the KB are 83 pages long!

There is a guy who is in the process of installing a whipple on his V10 over at http://www.got-pressure.com He is posting picks and plans on going into detail on the installation. I think he also plans on adding nitrous!

Adding any supercharger is not going to improve gas mileage in any way. I get around 7.5 MPG.

Well.. I'm far from rich! I am disabled now and retired so I'm actually on a fixed income.

Bought the excursion after totaling the suv I had. I have had several lifted trucks in the past (over 14 years ago) and decided to have one like I could not afford when I was younger. I have gotten carried away with it and spent much more than I had intended... but continue to enjoy it anyway. Some of us never grow up!
