High Mileage super charged mustangs!!

overnightmillionaire · November 23rd, 2011, 08:52 PM

Does your mustang have high mileage 80-90k+, is it supercharged?

If so, how does it run? Are you concerned your engine is going to blow up eventually? Have you had any issues so far?

Thanks

Not too bad. Just bought a new intake mani today. Finally had to replace it.

I have 140k on mine and it's a DD. . . Been thinking of slapping a SC on it

bottled2v · November 23rd, 2011, 10:38 PM

mines not supercharged, but i do spray a 125 shot on it, will bump that up to 150 come spring time. and I have 131xxx on it. no issues.

80k-90k is no problem for these engines IF they have been maintained properly up to that point. Plenty of guys on here well into the mid 100k with power adders. Go for it!

Yeh I'm going to, just worried it may destroy my engine.

mrsinister2424 · November 23rd, 2011, 11:15 PM

stay at or below 400whp and 12lbs of boost and you'll be okay man.

sharkbait · November 23rd, 2011, 11:25 PM

Its always a possibility. Aslong as you dont cut corners they'll take 400 like a champ

joshdj13 · November 23rd, 2011, 11:29 PM

yeah i'm around 175xxx and i'm going to but ill prob get a mmr short block so i can up the boost. ill keep the other original parts though. high miles means nothing if you keep proper maintenance and dont dog the crap out of it.

Liking what I'm hearing!

Have the super charger on the way, can't wait to get it installed!

eddy21x · November 23rd, 2011, 11:42 PM

02gtvortech · November 24th, 2011, 12:38 AM

If you don't mind me asking, how come your only pushing 324 rwhp, with the vortech I would think you would be pushing a lot more then that?

KV007 · November 24th, 2011, 01:33 AM

only 8.8 psi

I put the supercharger on at 80,000 miles. The car currently has 156,000 miles. The last 76,000 miles were at the power you see in the signature. That dyno day was this year. The car is still running strong. It ran a 12.7 @ 111 mph this fall with a 1.94 60 ft so the car is capable of faster times. It doesn't smoke or use oil and its been a reliable daily driver.

Keep the rwhp to 380-400 and the boost to 9-10 psi. With heads, cams and exhause you can get 425 rwhp at 10 psi. Don't get greedy and don't go above 400 rwhp by just increasing the boost. I'm not the only one that run a supercharger for a lot of miles. On third of the respondants to the below poll had more than 50,000 miles supercharged. Click on the number in each catagory to see their names.

How many miles supercharged?

Criscone · November 24th, 2011, 09:23 AM

95k here and spray is on the way. general maintenance goes a long way!
