Its basically a turbo that is belt driven
but 10 lbs of boost on the stock motor? I still think it will last, its all about tuning and stayin away from detonation. I was just lookin at a website (and i have a video) of a guy runnin 11 flat in a 04 v6 mustang with 17 lbs of boost (completely stock motor).

i used the canned tune, i havent fine tuned it yet, its pig rich


still runs like a bat out of heck

Keep it under 4500rpm or so until you get it tuned! That's a beautiful setup, don't risk throwing a rod until you can get a custom tune on that beast.

Only thing I don't really like about this set up is the placement of the intake. It is going to be stinking in hot air. I know there is an intercooler, but it would be nicer to have cool air from the front of the car entering the blower. How hot does the surface of that blower get? My Vortech S-Trim that I had on my old 91 vert got so hot you couldn't hold your hand on it after about 30 minutes of driving.

I remember when I put the Vortech on my 5.0, man it was scarey how much more power there was! That thing must go like a bat out of H-E-double hockey sticks

There goes the warranty!
It can be pulled without a trace, worst case scenario (engine explosion!), can't it?

I'm rootin' for on this. You deserve trouble-free boost and many years of asz-handing for having the coconuts to be one of the first to try this! :worship:

Very Nice indeed. You must be in heaven driving around looking for ricers! How long did the install take and how many friends helped?

Regards :worship:

Looks great. That extra hp has to be a blast in this car. I am looking foward to hearing more about it as you get some driving time on the system...

Condradulations.....And yes I am a little jealous...

I am still on the fence about the Super chargers. Having a automatic, I am not sure it ( or the torque converter ) can handle the boost in hp and especially torque that the procharger can put out. I am leaning tword the Saleen model since is only has 5psi of boost and around 400hp...

I'll be sure to let you know. When all is said and done I will be running a turbo on my auto putting at least (I hope) 600HP to the wheels. I'll let you know the limits of the stock tranny and converter!

05GT> I ordered a procharger too. do you have any install info or pics.. I need to get ready. I'm still a rookie at this.. so anything you can offer will help. I too got a great deal and they gave me the best deal out of many places I checked.. (because I'm poor also I can call them at anytime for help, (if anyone wants the info to buy one PM me) but I still wanted to see your install. maybe I can pick up somethin new of other peoples works..

--Thanks
