Super Charger

cboog25 · October 16th, 2006, 05:52 PM

hey i have a 04 mustang v6 convet/auto. and i was wondering what all i would need to do if i decided to get a supercharger in the future and if i would need to make any other modifications to my engine? i'm planning on getting a tlock and gears before the super charger but i didn't know if there would be any major problems or anything i needed to do other then just by it and have someone put it on.

also if you guys know of any good ones.

8.8 rear is a must pretty much. so dont get gears for the 7.5 that you have now if you plan on getting the s/c

VMP has a procharger with everything you need. its kinda pricey-$4,500 about but well worth it. most s/c kits wont have everything u need for it like that one. plus that one will start yyou at 11psi whihc aint bad

you could buy it and put it on now. with the 8.8 rear and have it safely tuned.

my suggestion
get long tubes, full exhaust. 2.5 or thicker
8.8 rear with 3.73's, 4.10 is a lot of gear for a s/c
some forged internals
and your set for a s/c. you'll be safe with the forged internals

remember a good safe tune is the MAIN thing for keeping your engine safe

don't they have kits with lower PSI?

itschristorres8 · October 16th, 2006, 07:13 PM

yea, ive seen a 3psi s/c clip. idk what kinda it was though

but i think roots s/c will start you off at like 5-6psi. someone on here has an eaton s/c he should knows....i think there a bit more $$ though...
vortech i think starts off at 9psi and they make procharger kits at 9psi also

but i'd suggest the VMPtuning's 11psi procharger just because ppl say the have good quality stuff and that s/c comes with everything you need...im pretty sure it does.

most centri chargers are 7-11 psi while the roots chargers aew generally 6-8 on our cars. you can change pullies on them though to get the boost level you want

cboog25 · October 17th, 2006, 03:22 PM

around how much would a good one cost? and how much would it be to be installed and tuned? any web sites?

AtlanticBlue99 · October 17th, 2006, 04:03 PM

if i gota s/c that'd be the only one id get on my v6....
seems good and 11psi is a good ass start

Sa-WaitNoMustang900Turbo · October 17th, 2006, 09:50 PM

id go with the 8 psi on stock internals and compression, i like my cars lasting

cboog25 · October 17th, 2006, 09:52 PM

ya thats what i was worried about.. i want my engine to be reliable cuz it is my DD and i don't want to jack something up because my whole engine is stock the only thing i have done to my car is a CAI and catback exaust but more mods are in my future before the supercharger i was just wondering so i could plan ahead. thanks guys

itschristorres8 · October 17th, 2006, 09:56 PM

you could ask VMP if they have a 8psi set up. if not i think u can get it tuned to 8psi
