SC Install

A couple questions:

Im going to buy in the next couple days. It looks like the Procharger is going to be the one I go with. I like the underhood looks of the X-Charger, but its just to overpriced for a 6psi system with no intercooler.

Anyway before I buy want some more info on the Powerdyne, is anyone running that system? The Dashworks website in the (un)offical power adder thread doesnt have much information.

How about replacing the fuel pump? Do our cars have an in-tank pump? How tough a job is that going to be?

I hope to be up and running FI before the New Year!!!!!!!!!!!!

The stock fuel pump is fine for any of the stock SC kits... No need to replace it unless you plan on cranking the boost WAY up... you do need bigger injectors though...

I followed the link that is posted in the (un)offical power adder thread to the RPM website, all thier Procharger kits including the 6psi kit come with injectors and a pump.

So, how tough a job is it to replace the pump?

I tried to call RPM Outlet to order today. I went to a street fair first thing this morning with my brother and sister, by the time we got home RPM was already closed. I guess it will be Monday.

the Xcharger has an available hi-po kit running 9-10 pounds of boost, has a pretty clean install for a do-it-yourselfer, make sure you do all your homework before buying,, all of them are a lot of money and all of them have given some good results, make sure any kit you have provides everything you will need for the install also, will suck to get in the middle of the install and have to order again from the internet, also check out some opinions of whoever you plan on ordering from, you need good customer service as well. be ready for tons of fun and the ability to do awsome burnouts when ever you want!

I think the X-charger is overpriced compared to the Procharger. So it looks like the Procharger.

i havent done it myself, but it is much easier than with the previous mustangs. you dont have to drop the gas tank anymore. all you have to do is remove the rear seat and the in-tank fuel pump is right there.
