Supercharger

Post by Coda »

im just looking around and powerdyne superchargers make them for the 97-00 model for 2300$. Can this work with my 03? On powerdynes website they also have them for 00-02 but its 4300$. Would any of these work if i have a 03?

Split this topic since it does not relate to the v-8 thread -HJ

Powerdyne

Post by snowsurfer »

I put a 1999 Powerdyne on my 03. A few minor adaptions..Powerdyne now sells one for 03 but it's not shown on their website. I believe it's #10528. The 01-02's come with headers, egr stuff...not needed for an 03.

SC install

Post by snowsurfer »

I installed it myself, it took about 4-5 hours trying to figure things out. The instructions are vague plus like I said there were some minor adaptions that I had to deal with with the earlier kit...

It's not break your neck speed but an improvement, didn't have my truck dyno so HP ????
My suggestions would be to also change plugs, exhaust and MSD6BTM and if you like Y pipe and headers....
There is a kit for 03's now but it's not listed on the site, if you do order one let me know I'm interested in whats different....
I'm happy with the increase of power but I've alos done a number of V8 swaps which has more power but also alot hard to do, $$$$ more and more weight and fuel so I guess it boils down to what you want...

I think powerdyne claims you should get about 225 to the wheels. Enough to take a stock mustang GT

Powerdyne...

Post by KCustom »

You will will want to add about $1000 to the price, It is not possible to add a supercharger without reprograming your PCM and adding an inline fuel pump to maintain fuel pressure. You will also want to put a good cat back on the truck at least 2.75 to 3 inch....

Yea I was going to add the new magnaflow cat-back that just came out. They also claim that it adds 12 hp but who knows.
