    Clutch Swap with Magnacharger

    Anybody had to put a new clutch in after installing a Magnacharger blower? I'm in for 30K on the stocker and she's shot. Can the transmission be removed without having to undo the front motor mounts to tip the engine? It's tight back there.

    My Engine is Out of My Car Update...

    The end of 04 was a tough time for me and Ford for sure. Still a fan as I sold a 2007 Z06 to buy the GT500. Who knew Ford doesn't make Corvettes...Just because you don't have a Stang you are driving a very nice ride. We had a Lariat F150 for seven years of faithful service.

    supercharger?

    Magnacharger kit was easy to install, started the first crank, and has run flawlessly for about 2-3 yrs. Experiment if you want, but no way but tried and true for me.

    My Engine is Out of My Car Update...

    Not sure who was around back in late 04 when I purchased my brand new 05 Mustang GT, but just wanted to update on Ford doing the right thing. For a long read one night...ended up Ford replaced my Mustang. http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/526716-my-engine-out-my-car-all-threads.html...

    Tires/Speakers

    Funny thread, you are dealing with the same two issues I had with mine. Mine has the SVTPP wheels so replacements for the cool weather are tough. Ended up with these Michenlin Pilots. Santa brought this Rockford Fosgate 12" 300 watt sub enclosure and it put bass back in my Shelby!

    Superchargers and the Cruise Control

    I have nothing but good comments to say about the Magnacharger supercharger system. (Other than the throttle is a switch rather than an analog device.) The acceleration is still way crazy above 4k. I have a grand total of about 1000 miles on my Magnacharger and am still trying to figure out...

    anyone install in dash nav unit in GT ? need some help

    Standing in front of the car....top plug on the PCM. Remove the cap on the top plug, it is the blue wire with yellow tracer on the left side. Tap into this wire for VSS. AVIC411.COM is the master for Pioneer units. I have the Z1 in my GT and did not bother with the VSS. Use the NAV all...

    Magnacharger Install....

    No thanks for the more boost....I don't think I want to push the stock block any harder than the Magnacharger stock setup. When this one wears out, I will definately put a stronger bottom end in the motor, but hopefully that is a few years out. As far as the dyno, I have run my GTech on the...

    Magnacharger Install....

    Thanks for the comments rather than flames. Like I said, that kit just seemed to be a bit more labor intensive. By the way, your Roush kit looks awsome. I wish the MagnaCharger was offered in the black finish. Anyway, took the Magnacharger back out against the GTech today and ran it with...

    Magnacharger Install....

    Other Superchargers..... I just read through this well documented install and can't believe how much harder it appears to be to install the Roush kit. I am not sure which would be a better blower, but I can say this....the MagnaCharger appears to be a much cleaner install. I am on day...

    SCT Xcalibrator2 LiveLink Software

    Has anyone done any data logging with their SCT Xcalibrator2 usb port? I have read over the manual and looked at their website, but wanted some real world experience to see if works as advertised. Regards, TicketMeRed

    Magnacharger Install....

    To answer the questions 1: The instruction set I have has an additional sheet in the front of the manual that states to install the calibration FIRST. Mine came with the SCT Xcalibrator 2. It only offers 1 tune to load and the procedure saves the stock tune before writing the new program...

    Magnacharger Install....

    Looking over all the installation progress pictures...I had to share this one. At this point during the installation is where you really start to question yourself about what you have done to your car.....:eek:

    Magnacharger Install....

    I put about 12hrs into the actual work....I stared at it a little while along the way though. I drove it a couple of more times today and it is the exact same car as far as starting, idling, and below 3500 - 4000 rpm as long as you don't push the go pedal too hard. I bet I could take you for a...

    Magnacharger Install....

    Done. The first start it did not even sputter. It fired right up no problems. I just got back from my second time out and it is basically the same car if you don't put your foot into it. When you get over about three grand on the tach....wow! :jaw: Basic mechanical skills and awsome...
