[QUOTE="John813, post: 1421235, member: 17103"] No real differences between a 13/14. Other than colors. I would just not buy that truck if you are considering taking off the blower. A lot of money to do so, to downgrade back to stock levels, unless you do it yourself. It just comes down to how hard the previous owner drove the truck. Was it pushed hard, to the point of where wear items have accelerated in decline or was it driven lightly, with a WOT hit here and there. Cause if it was pushed hard, even if you took the blower off, the wear has already occurred and it's not like the truck will become more durable after the fact. If you are worried about reliability but you want a SC truck just take care of it and don't beat the living shit out of it. When you are driving "normally" there's no extra wear persay driving the truck with a SC compared to NA. Check to see if the previous owner did the oil pump gears or not. It's not the end of the world if he didn't as I know a factory roush truck owner with more mods+ more boost with over 100k on the clock without any issues. And it was pushed when we went offroading in S. FL heat. That warranty may not cover any engine/powertrain stuff since the blower was added. Yea, the magnuson moss act blah blah blah, but if you crack a rod/window mod or bearing they can point to the aftermarket blower and say that caused it. Good luck winning that battle. Even if you took the blower off, a dealer/Ford engineer can see the truck was flashed at some point for the supercharger tune and boom back to fighting Ford/dealer about warranty. [/QUOTE]
