I honestly think AFBLUE needs to get someone from SCT (KenB at modular depot or Cobra Killer at Modularfordpowerhouse.com) get ahold of his car for a tune. I still think his numbers are low. Plus they can turn the cooling fans on sooner and keep the car cooler under all conditions.

An intercooler or Vortech Aftercooler would help tremendously regardless.

According to advertised hp gains I think it's needing some help also. I want to run about 8psi with my current mods (and add the x-pipe w/cats) and get to 300hp at the wheels. Everything I've read and heard from others makes it sound like it's possible without tearing the engine apart. I got the new MM&FF today and it just happens to have a large story on superchargers. Time to get educated.

Not sure why you say that. Vortech advertises HP gain for the model I got was 75hp which was most likely at the flywheel.

See http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com/produc...mustang_gt.html

Here is the cut and paste from that web page


Supercharging System with V-2 SQ for 1996-1997 4.6 Mustang GT


Adds 75 horsepower
Adds 80 ft/lbs of torque
6-8 PSIG
Includes SQ-Trim supercharger
Satin (010SQ) or Polish (018SQ) finish
Why buy a Vortech Supercharging System?



I could spend and get the intercooler but I don't want to put any more money into this car as it will take away money for a 06 Mustang.
