    Got a supercharger at last

    I guess some people call it a Bypass, Ricers call it a Blow off valve. The on from Vortech is a POS. The one from Stratmosphere is a aluminum, rebuildable unit. Behold: HyperBoost

    Got a supercharger at last

    You going to use a SVT Focus Pump?? Here is some good advice...ditch the plastic diverter and spend $100.00 on a Stratmosphere Audi/VW diverter, it is "plug and play".

    What do low boost superchargers trap?

    Times in my sig. I think I trapped 111 once though.

    Third Time at the Track

    The problem might be the heat. I would drop the air pressure to 15-18#. You will get there. when my 2000 GT was NA I ran five 13.85's 1/4--8.9,s 1/8th in a row in 90 degree weather on a 2.0x 60 foot. This was with stock gears and a Magnaflow exhaust.

    wont idle, dies if let off gas

    Sounds like the IAC (Idle Air Control valve). Easy fix...$40.00 at Autozone. :flag:

    Suspension Setup

    Well I had some BAD inner tire wear after about 2000 miles after the "C" springs....so I got the KB Caster Plus Plates and a realignment, problem solved.

    Suspension Setup

    You absolutely have to have CC plates with "C" springs!! I have been in the game for a long time and the progression for SN 95's should be: SUB FRAME CONNECTORS (First) Front "C" springs CC Plates ALIGNMENT!!!!!! Steeda front ball joints Rear LCA's Adjustable Shocks Sruts If...

    Love my Stang, but don't know how you guys who drive them daily do it

    I don't drive mine daily because I have a SVT Focus, BMW Z4 and a 02 Harley F150 so I have to give them all some love. But when I want to feel good about being me, I get out the "Batmobile". 2000 Vortech'ed GT. There is nothing like the sound of a Vortech supercharged 4.6 at idle...then you open...

    opinions on a 3 link suspension

    I have the Kenny Brown Trackit: Adjustable LCA's/Panhard bar (removed quad shocks) and 5 way Tokico's and we had to slightly modify the passenger side tailpipe (magnaflow). I love the way this thing handles now and it has built in anti dive geometry. When I accelerate is goes straight and...

    Fuel Pump question SVT focus (maybe)

    That is a SVTF pump, it should be plug and play and you shouldn't need a tune.

    Fuel problem almost solved, quick pointers

    SVT Focus pumps have a green plastic piece on top and the regular ones have a grey(I think) plastic piece on top. Believe me I know, I bought the wrong pump when I put the supercharger in.

    Is it normal for the car to stink after adding H pipe and Cat back?

    If you only have 2 cats that means you will have that smell until they heat up. The reason it didn't smell before is because you had 4 cats, the 2 close to the engine where "light off cats" which means they heat up almost imeadiately.
