Sunday afternoon, went out to see if any leaks had come on cause thats my luck and I feel the bottom of the charger like you guys do your lady's breasts or buttox. I feel synthetic at my finger tips!! I thought "this is just great [  ]" Just like tony the tiger would say. So I check the oil in the charger and it reads a little bit above min. So I end up adding like a whole other 6 ounces to it and its still reading the same!!! Today I call procharger and tell them that the drain plug ain't getting any tighter and that I feel most of it coming out of the bolt above the drain plug. Ironically the dipstick is too short ( which explains why it read about the same after I added 6 more ounces. So he ends up giving me a number to write on the box when I ship the procharger back to them. Plus they are on back order for like a month. My car has to sit for a freaking month. Im not paying anymore money for this shit, they were telling me I can just hook up the filter but it would still haft to be dyno'd to run right. It has 42 injectors.
Real Crappy, I really don't know what to say, almost don't know what to do anymore. Im seriously thinking about buying a little s-10, Ford ranger, Dodge Dakota or something to drive around while this car is in the shop!![:@] ( plus I might beable to make more money at work too) But This car has been a lot of burdden for me. I mean it hasn't been that bad but I can't even enjoy it for a few weeks straight cause its eather at Ford getting something fixed or for the remended check ups or I can't keep from modding it and its at the speed shop. Then when I get it all said and done, the fucn tranny starts to leak from ford shit work. Then the fucn procharger go's!!!! Guys I really feel like sh!t. I feel like, like I don't even know! It could be a lot worse though. I could not have a job. or I could not have a 2005 v6 stang to begin with but it still erks me cause I work to hard for this little bit of fun and a lot of stress.
Im not impressed with procharger though. Especially after I see how much of a pain it is to change the oil. You need a crowwrech and bet you still will have a hard time, or you need to release the belt tension and take the stupid !WEIGHT! plate off just to change the sh!t. (yes I do mean weight plate, I looked at my car today and it looks like the front sits lower like I dropped a V8!! its from all the supercharger weight! and plumming and intercooler-, need to lower the back end just to make it even LOL) Im not even going to lie, I wish I had gone Vortech or Turbo, have ford change my car oil, add an extra quart and be done LOL. Not that those won't have there problems too but man I can see why the self cooled option is kinda crudy. The dipstick thing is kinda unprofessinal too ( how ever the hell you spell it)
Well had to vent and Im still not happy or feeling better, I need to go shoot my pistol and plug some stuff LOL. Time for some good ol bong tokes to the head for this one boys, its gunna be a long month. Any suggestions on advice and less stress would be good. Im trying to get signed up for school during all this but I can't do it!! To much for me right now. Sucks

Really sorry to hear of your plight
Oh yea you just reminded me of a few things.
1 Why I bought the V6 in the first place " keeps me out of trouble with the law". A lead foot in a V8 = Tickets or worse for me.
2 Keep my new cars mostly stock engine wise and just make them look good, most girls don't know the difference as long as it's pretty and sounds good and what the hey I mostly do car shows.
3 Hate to say this but I have no brand loyalty, I buy my cars for the looks and if I really want to go fast for less you can't beat a Chebby, light car + big block bowtie = FAST

It'll get better. I'm having issues with people doing shit work right now too. But just stick it through and you'll start to really enjoy the car.
