98 4.6 stang · January 20th, 2008, 02:12 PM

tlr96 · January 20th, 2008, 02:23 PM

ive been thinking of getting a vortech like this one for my stang

Vortech 96-98 GT 4.6L 2V Kit w/V-1 S-Trim w/Aftercooler (satin) [4FH218-050S] - $4,337.55

98 4.6 stang · January 20th, 2008, 03:30 PM

just wondering did u ever think about a kenne bell because i dont know if it will work for our cars but i do think they do have a kit for our cars

MikeD05GT · January 20th, 2008, 03:48 PM

if u have pi swap can u get s/c for 99/04 mustang?

nes · January 20th, 2008, 04:17 PM

its the bracket thats different, that and the 96-98 kits typically come with an fmu, no injectors etc. u can get a 99-04 kit, expect to get a different bracket unless u got a 99-04 timing cover(for w.e year the kit is for) and expect to either buy an fmu, or get some injectors and a new tune.

mongoose kit is the kit you want, kenne bells are discontinued for 96-98 cars, buti think the kit will work if you got pi heads

MikeD05GT · January 20th, 2008, 05:03 PM

go for that mongoose kit...it comes with everything you need and more...not really more...lol

Yes, the Kenne Bell works on cars with the PI conversion. But i also like the idea of a mongoose kit from MPH.

Yep and the T-Trim is a $450 add-on to the S-Trim kit I believe...

ZoomZoomMFer · January 20th, 2008, 09:49 PM

ya once i get some money... definitely going to get a keene bell or vortec

G.T. Rags · January 20th, 2008, 10:51 PM

nes · January 20th, 2008, 11:24 PM

Just out of curiosty how much power did you make from the kit?

MikeD05GT · January 21st, 2008, 10:17 PM

alot

nes · January 22nd, 2008, 12:25 AM

id imagine he is hovering the 400hp mark, with your setup im sure the actual numbers will be much different...

ChrisJ · January 22nd, 2008, 07:48 PM

I am running a canned right now...

Once the intercooler is on I will get a dyno run...

Im running 12#'s...Im guessing I will be over the 400rwhp mark...
