    Magnacharger Install....

    I thought I would follow up on this as the car is now 60K + in the mileage department. My son bought this car from me and drives it like he stole it every day. 60K+ on the odo and running like new. Magnacharger hit one over the fence with this kit.

    Forced Induction Supercharging My 05 4.6

    Sounds like you might want to do some more general research about differences between the power adders rather than one on one questions. Google up forced induction and you'll have more information than you could ever digest. Good luck!

    Forced Induction Supercharging My 05 4.6

    Do you plan on taking the car to the track to prove out those numbers or is that just where you think you want to be? If you've never driven a car with upwards of 500 hp, you'll find that traction becomes a big issue with that kind of power. You can't just stomp on the gas like you can in a...

    Forced Induction Supercharging My 05 4.6

    A "cal" is a new calibration for your car computer. It reprograms the ECU to provide proper control for your new hardware. As far as a forged bottom end, that is why I recommended Livernois. They are the guys that can suggest / tell you what you need for the HP numbers you are seeking. I'm...

    Forced Induction Supercharging My 05 4.6

    It is just my opinion, but I'd stay away from the 10 psi kits without reworking the lower end of your engine to handle that kind of power. The more expensive kit includes them installing the lower price looks to include a cal.

    Advice On What To Do Next....

    With 10 PSI of boost on a stock lower end, I would think you need to start looking at engine rebuilds. Somethings going to break at that kind of boost.

    Just bought a used 2007 GT....

    I would think you would need to take the car to a shop that can tune the car on a dyno to see if it is set up correctly. My magnacharger setup on my 05 came with a sticker to put on the cars programming port letting someone know that the car did not have a stock tune. The dyno is the only way...

    Input Requested: '13 Boss 302 Ls Or Gt500 Vert?

    Sorry to the OP for the thread jack....the Busa is my street ride and the GSXR is track only. Me and my son in law at Barber on my blue GSXR.

    Forced Induction Supercharging My 05 4.6

    With kits like the Magnacharger and the Edelbrock, they are built to add to basically a stock block. They come with tunes that are built around that setup. If you start dropping in cams, etc... you'll have to go get a custom tune from a dyno shop. As far as the engine being safe, as I said...

    Has Anyone Every Put Auto Tape On Their Car?

    I can go 160mph at VIR on my GSXR 1000 with my GoPro held on by nothing more than the 3M tape mount stuck on my helmet. Today's adhesive's are not your run of the mill kind of stick on stuff.

    '13 Gt Brembo No Pirellis

    My 05 GT came with the Pirelli tires and they held up well. Decent grip and good mileage. My 11' GT500 came with the Goodyear F1 G2s and they were brick bat hard in the late fall cool air temps. I put some Michelin's on and ran them. They seemed a bit better to me. With the new GT/CS it is...

    Drivetrain Grinding Noise From Clutch 05 Gt

    Bad clutches show up as a slip when applying the gas. (RPM goes up with no following acceleration.) You should never be hearing anything that sounds like grinding metal! As much as you don't want to, sounds like you need a trip to the mothership to let them take a look. Good luck.

    Forced Induction Supercharging My 05 4.6

    Threw a magnacharger on my 05 YEARS ago and now my son still drives it like he stole it. (He bought it from me!) It has maybe 50K on that setup and still runs like a champ. She was a manual, so I'm not sure about your auto tranny needs. The manual with the blower chewed through the stock clutch...

    Looking To Buy: Shelby Vs Cts-v

    I've had the fortune of owning GM and Ford products in the past and much prefer the Ford way of doing things. As a past 2011 GT500 owner I can tell you that with the PP they are a tough ride for even short periods of time. It was hella fun, but a kidney buster for traveling. As far a modding and...

    Can't Fill Gas Tank on 05 GT?

    My 05 has done this for several years. Not worth the 1000 dollar + hit for a new tank. Take your time during the fill up and enjoy looking at your ride...

    Clutch Swap with Magnacharger

    The one now is just an OEM stock clutch. The original was replaced at around 20k due to some second gear shift issues. The new one has lasted till around 50k which is where it is now. It is going to be a pricey swap if Ford does it so definitely will buy an upgraded one for this swap. I'll...
