    new stock motor and vortech pulley help

    I'd go with a 3.33" pulley and sell your steeda power pipe and go with a larger Anderson power pipe. That should get you close to your goal and be resonably safe.

    what im i looking at for shortblock install

    Ya, it's now SGS and no longer Kauffman's. Dave is still the tuner, but they are more of a service garage than a performance shop.

    what im i looking at for shortblock install

    If you want I can do it on the side for you. I was the one at Kauffman Motorsports who used to do the engine builds and swaps. Even though Kauffman's has closed I'm still doning stuff on the side for old customers and friends. Things like head swaps and blower installs at cheeper prices...

    Nitrous oxide questions

    I agree two different animals! If I had nitrous on my 00GT I wouldn't go higher than a 150hp shot and more than likely I would use a 100hp shot most of the time. I also like the plate setups more. I have the NOS big shot kit on my 91LX that sits inbetween the upper and lower intake with a...

    Nitrous oxide questions

    Look at the post date for the 530rwhp, it's been almost two years of borrowed time :p and before that over 2 years at 460rwhp and she's still going. Granted that the guy in the other link did fail late last year. It's all in how you drive and treat the car. Mine was tuned since day one and...

    How are Patriot Heads?

    I've installed quite a few of their heads on 2v mustangs. From I've seen, the older heads had issues with valve guides and valve seals. Lately I haven't seen any issues. The one good thing is if you do have a problem, they will always take care of the problem by fixing the heads. The...

    Need Help On Intercooler

    I took a procharger intercooler and did custom piping. I basically copied the way fast track does their intercoolers. I basically took a hole saw to my car right next to my frame rail. This allowed the intercooler tube to come up away from the power pipe...here a pic of how my aluminum...

    How To Get 500+ HP Out Of 4.6?

    I'm not sure what shops you deal with, but most of any of the major dyno shops that deal with Procharges refer to the P1-SC as a "leak 1-SC" I don't have to post links, like I said I work at a Mustang perfomance shop and I've seen it first had many times. Do a search and you'll see people...

    How To Get 500+ HP Out Of 4.6?

    I would think Vortech has more money in R&D since they own Paxton and can draw from them also. As somebody who worked at a Mustang performance shop for over 6 years and has seen all the blowers on our dyno and installed many of them, you can't compair a S-trim to a P1-SC as equals. The...

    throttle body problem

    BBK's are known for sticking throttle and whistling at idle. I removed my bbk 75mm throttle body and went with an accufab 75mm on my 91lx. No sticking throttle and no more whistling noise.

    intercooler install

    I think we did around 4 pulls at that power level. She was out of fuel with 03 cobra pumps, so we never got the chance to add much timing. I've added twin focus pumps, but haven't gotten around to dyno'ing it. I wouldn't recomend the power level to a customer who wanted their car to last...

    intercooler install

    You do lose some boost and a bit of low end power, but it's always there and you don't have to worry about a pump failing or running out of windsheild fluid. If I remember correctly I lost around 2lbs of boost through my procharger setup, but with added timing I almost made up for the boost loss.

    getting slight power flucuation with votech

    The start up issues are a result of the tune. The surgging is either from the bypass causing wash on the mass air or possibly the tune also needs some adjusting.

    How To Get 500+ HP Out Of 4.6?

    Vortech blower with power pipe and a 3.12 pulley. Next go with an intercooler or some kind of water injection. A set of blower cams and a set of valve springs. A good intake manifold like the bullitt intake. Your going to need a fuel system like 60lb injectors and the cobra tank and pumps...

    Help with prepping GT for tune...

    Since your bringing the car to us I'd go with the cams and valve springs. The stock pump will be fine along with the fuel injectors. I'd also stay with the stock mass air. Also the results we've been hearing about the intake from other shops be it N/A or supercharged that the stock intake is...

    Blower + Front-Mount Intercooler Feasible?

    I think I paid $250 for the used intercooler from my cousin who's procharger P1 failed. The piping wasn't that bad, I just bought some U-bends and cut and welded them up to match a fast track intercooler's piping setup.

    Blown intake gasket under boost?

    It's very rare since the OEM gaskets ford uses are very good. It's more common to find that one of the runners in the plastic intake manifold have craked. Also with your car have a procharger it's very common to have one of the intercooler pipes blow off and cause problems.

    Supercharger questions?

    I'd go with a regular Vortech S trim blower kit. It's one of the best all around blowers on the market and will give you room to grow and be reliable for a daily driver. Mine has been on my 2000GT for over 4 years with no problems to date and has been a daily driven.
