should I go for this ??


I think I may be able to get a supercharger.

I searched on google and found this:

Vortech Tuner Centrifugal Supercharger Kits 4FL218-150S

This particular attracted me because of the price.

But I'd like to get some thoughts/opinions/suggestions/advice on it before I do anything.

My car is a DD and has some 100,500 miles on it. Auto tranny as well..idk if these things matter but just throwing it out there.

thats only a tuner kit, you'll still need a bunch of other stuff to have a running car with it.

Thats not a "bad" price for a new kit. But youll still need, fuel pump/injectors/spark plugs/bypass valve/boost a pump and intercooler (optional)

I have 2 links in my signature that will help you. I put togeather my kit for $1600. And I know people who have done it cheap too

@KV007...Yes I know..and that also means goodbye to intake as well I think.

I found this supercharger on Steeda's website.

Vortech Superchargers for 1986 thru 2004 Ford Mustang

I'm looking at the one that's for $2,195.00

I don't suppose this one is a tuner kit...it's showing that it's for a 86-93 stang but it's showing it will fit on a 2003 gt auto tranny..Will it still work efficiently on my car?

No their wrong. Push rod motors (95 and under) use a clock wise direction on the supercharger. 96-04 GT need a straight discharge (not curved) and counter clockwise

What? Damn I'm confused because when I scrolled to the bottom it shows that it fits for the 03 gt auto tranny as well. Referring to the 2,195.00 one

Yea the kit that fits 01-04. The supercharger for 86-93 will not fit your car. Has nothing to do transmission wise. Its the rotation, discharge of the blower, and the bracket.

Like I said, look at the 2 links in my sig, those will really help you out bro
