Supercharger for under $3000??

SVTStang03 · Sep 5, 2004

OK, I have $2800 right now and really want to do something big with my car... Is there any S/C feasable for this price? If not, what should I do next??!!

Thanks!

you should check out the classifieds... although i wouldn't buy used when it comes to superchargers, UNLESS you really REALLY trust the guy selling...

a bit more patience and a few more months and you'll be ready to do it the right way.

OK, should I go with a KB and pay for an install, or a Vortech/Procharger and do it myself? I think a Vortech kit is like $3200??

I vote for installing it yourself regardless of what kit you get. I would say that the KB would be the easiest since they have a 100 page instruction sheet. I just tossed my Procharger instructions and basically winged it on the install. came out just fine though. also learned a couple tips along the way about shimming out the blower that would have never been in the instructions.

been that route , spent over 4000 when I was said and done and still had to spend more later , ex: the fuel pumps (walbro) are junk , focus pump is about 88 bucks and aviator is what I went with is about 180 , plus the tunes they give you are crap , you may be able to get by with getting a tuner kit around 2100-2500 some places , and then get a fuel pump , I recommend the aviator over the focus 180 bucks , relocate the IAT sensor yourself about 2 dollars for a grommet .... and the only other things you would need would be injectors (used about 100 bucks 30lbs or larger ) new about 219 from most places ....... and finally a tune from someone like the guys over at modulardepot.com or modularmustangs.net ..... that will hopefully be able to dial it in alot closer than the chips they send with the kits ..... cheapest you are going to slide by if you look around would be at best 2100 for the tuner kit 100 for used injectors , focus pump 88 bucks and the about 300-500 for a tune .....

Was all that for your Vortech? A far as I know, the Kenne Bell kit is as close to a "bolt on" kit as you can get. The tune you get is even pretty close to right on the money from what I hear.

From what I hear a tune is important to get the most power out of your sc.

I have a total of 3200 for my set up through http://www.musclemotors.com/ I heard it is cheaper now it include the vortech tuner kit, chip, powerpipe. injectors and also a walbro fuel pump.Tell them you perfer to by your own punp and either get the focus or aviator pump. the best place for pumps are at modulardepot. If you bargin with muscle motors you maybe get done for 3000.?
