hey i have a 96 mustang gt i have recently done a pi swap on it and i'm looking to get some 3:73 gears but other than that i can't figure out what would be the best for my car i want it to be a very strong car but still be reliable i would love to be able to put a supercharger on that but i need to know what i need to do for it to hold it if anything and what charger would be the best for my car if anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.


thanks.
 
These questions have been asked on here hundreds of times. I asked some of those same questions when I first started. Do a search on this site and other mustang forums too. You'll find more info about your questions in an hour than you'll get from this thread in a week.

Some advice: do some real thinking about what your goals are and work towards them. You'll save yourself alot of money and time.
 
The PI swap raises the compression ratio by a full point. The increased CR and supercharging do not go together well (will limit boost and or cause trade offs with regards to timing to keep pinging in check).

Not to mention that a 96 motor with PI heads needs a slightly different timing curve for BEST results. Therefore, getting a "caned" tune is unlikely.

It's been mentioned before. Decide what your goals/expectations/resources really are. Make a plan.
 
What you Need to do is ask yourself how much money you are willing to put into it. When you start talking about superchargers your talking about upwards of 3-4k

Depending on what your budget is start out with full exhaust, ud pulleys, k&n filter, throttle body/plenum combo blah blah blah you get the point
