mmvi · April 3rd, 2007, 10:29 PM

if I did, what all would I need to do to my engine?

GreenFaleen · April 3rd, 2007, 10:34 PM

before you even think about buyiing that read where it says "ONLY FITS GM MOTORS" , unless that is just what the one you found looks like

mmvi · April 4th, 2007, 01:27 AM

that model is only for GM... but i called them and they have the same type for mustangs for the same price and specs.

you can do 7psi with a procharger (intercooler) but on a vortech i think you wouldnt be able to do as much psi without doing harm because of the heat difference

that site makes no sense...says ford on the side....fits GM only and the motor is a honda

Well, you have to think any Head Unit can be made to work with Any car.... Just change the pipe/bracket and your good. Only think is their are used vortech kits for 1,500$ everywhere I'de look at one of those before I bought that one

like I said it says ford on the link and on the side....GM only with a Honda motor I wouldnt waste my time on a site that cant be made rite....plus you can find better deals...

to get it running at it's best. Forged internals like faleen said, but also new upper and lower intake manifold, new cylinder heads with stainless steel valves, roller rockers, hardened push rods, new cam, 8.8" rear end.

votech kits for 1500? can you give me some place names i could try to get one at?

mmvi · April 4th, 2007, 02:18 PM

can an intercooler be installed on my car without forced induction and help at all?

Cricket · April 4th, 2007, 02:59 PM

and air to air intercooler, but it would end up being your cold air intake.
