No way to add a intercooler to that setup at all. its not made to be a big hp kit, just a cheap good daily driver safe blower kit from ford.

Wow, I'm kinda jealous. That setup has a low enough profile to get a strut tower brace across it. There's no way i can do that with my KB. I guess I'm just gonna have to teach myself how to weld and fab one up myself.

im buying this supercharger also, i'd order it all this week but i gotta stick to my budget because i have some things coming up soon (i wish i could get the same price as dfroster). so it will be a month or so but im defnitely getting this supercharger. i love the fact that you can barely even see the blower sitting there and if you dont know what you're looking for you'd never see it. also i can keep my strut tower brace and the price is good. i almost bought a vortech but i really dont want a centrifugal blower i'd be much happier with something of this nature and a kenne bell is way too much $ for me to spend on just a blower.

i dont belive for one sec one made 400rwhp with that blower and jsut headers and catback. There was one on a car at FFW here it only made 320rwhp with off road h-pipe, catback,tune. Not gonna happen, its not that kinda power maker.

LOL!!! Maybe ford was measuring at the crank again. LMAO!
I saw some show on SPEED where they were tuning and dyno testing the 3v 4.6l. The engine was not even in the car. It was on a stand. LOL.

more then likly i bet they were, let me serius here a unintercooled blower with a 6psi or even 8psi pulley isnt gonna do 400 to the wheels with those mods. hell with exhuast i dont think it can. Its a awsome daily driver safe reliable power adder though.

Hold on guys im confused.
I was looking at this kit a few days ago, and was told that ford 99+ models, there was no hardware kit for it yet.. But one of the posts at the begining said there was a hardware kit for 99+ GT's, but I cant find it on the ford racing website.
Plus these things are on ebay for a good price too.

The blower sounds like the perfect blower. I mean its hidden to the untrained eye but putting out 400 rwhp with a 6lb pulley and it being a non-intercooled setup screams disaster to me with the heat that will be made. I would love that with a conservative tune.
#58
6psi isn't going to create an incredible amount of heat though. Yeah, the intake air charge will be hot, but nothing near say an uncooled 9psi system. Still very managable and nothing a Snow meth/water kit won't help out with.

The guy is still pulling 140 degrees per dyno run. I mean give that car a beating one day at the track or on a road course and it could turn into a problem. I dont know, mabye im just skeptical but the more I think about it, the more I want one. We have 17 dealerships in our group so getting this blower at cost seems to just inch me closer and closer to buying it. Eh, mabye ill just go ahead and buy it this summer. Like you said, meth/water injection will solve that problem...
