    supercharged 4.0 question

    Go with Jim's advice. I have a charge cooled vortech v2 at 16psi on mine, no issues, I also am the only one still using the 7.5 that can run 11's, although with a girdle, auburn diff, 4:10's and 3" wheel studs, it is best to go with the 8.8 swap, it will cost less in the long run.

    How much HP can the 4.0 hold up to?

    I think you are right on the money, 300hp with the canned tune, more with a dyno or email tune like I have. As mentioned I have the vortech, I know a bunch that have the xcharger, known a few with the procharger, all are great systems, the x has an intercooler now and they are getting pretty quick.

    How much HP can the 4.0 hold up to?

    A tune, intake, 3:73 gears w/T-Loc, plus a GT takeoff muffler will really wake it up, LCA's would come after that. I ran 13.81 with bolt ons, so the power is there. The above will really be felt when driving, get a package deal for the tuner and intake, and I bet you can get a deal on the...

    How much HP can the 4.0 hold up to?

    I have the 7.5 because I have invested a lot into it, were I do it it from scratch I would have an 8.8. I have purchased 2 t-locks, 3 sets of gears, an auburn dif and a T/A girdle plus fluids, plus 7.5 specific tools. In the car right now is a 7.5 t-loc with 3:73's, which I know will...

    2005-06 Mustang V6 Throttle Body (not spacer)

    If you want a bigger one, buy the Zabtech. It is a machined out factory unit (to 68mm) with a custom throttle plate and shaft. Comes with all the eletronics attached so it just bolts on and plugs in. I use it, still $300+ 12.7@104 10psi vortech aftercooled

    give me some estimate on 0-60 & 1/4 please

    The pulley is near $300, you have to buy the reccommended belt and rent a crank pully puller. I had a hard time keeping the engine from turning untill I attached a chain to one of the pulley bolts and hooked the chain through the frame rail.

    give me some estimate on 0-60 & 1/4 please

    Great to hear you have a plan! If you want to change the throttle body get a zabtech one, it is a direct replacement and you do not have to R&R the eletronics of your stocker like you do with all other 4.0 v6 tb's. The under drive crank pully is great. 3:73's are a good choice also, I ran...

    I ran 13.898 N/A bolt on this weekend!

    It is my daily driver year round, the only differences would be street tires, the caps on the cutouts on and the passenger seats in. This is on 93 pump gas with a 89 octane tune. I drove to the track 125 miles away and drove back, 22.5 mpg at 75 mph. the above picture is at US131, and I...
