Default underdrive pulleys and supercharger

im looking at a set of Steeda Underdrive pulleys for my next upgrade but im trying to only modify things i wont have to get rid of when i get a supercharger, will the steeda pulleys have to be replaced with the stock pulleys when i install a supercharger down the road?

Yes, dont spend the time or money on them now if you are getting a blower later. They arent used together.

try headers... which are a B**** to install yourself... well time wish.... supension work... cams... pi heads...

and ya underpullies and superchargers dont mix... thats what i am waiting on for my charger which i have sitting in my room... had to get my parents to ship my stock ones to me... did not fill like buying new ones =(... you could all was get a used set until u get the charger depending on when u getting them and who u get them from.

yeah id rather not spend the money on stuff im going to have to sell later. eventually ill get long tube slp headers to go with my slp exhaust but probably not soon. i like the idea of cams but would it be worth it with stock heads?

Well, id say prepare the suspension for the shock of 100 more hp. Get some Subframe connectors, some lower control arms, and if you want, some springs and struts. This will help TREMENDOUSLY. Also, conside some drag radials for when the power comes.

If youre going to get a supercharger I wouldn’t get u/d pulleys. They are just not boost friendly. I would build up everything else. If you’re looking for the normal <400 rwhp mustang take care of your rear end, exhaust, intake. Those will aid on maximizing you F/I gains. If you get greedy though and plan to build 400rwhp+ I would definitely thing about taking care of the block internals first. It will save you many headaches down the road.
