My project is started

[badazzstang]

Nothing like a supercharger, you will LOVE IT, nice job so far

I always thought about a s/c but it seems like most people have issues afterwards,blown h/g, blown intake gaskets,oil blowing out of seals.It just seems like Id be chasing issues.

....Making LOTS of progress Dave! ... Looking great!

 

[06RFSTANG]

Thanks Tim..not much more to do but I was having some trouble with a clamp on a rear heater tube and decided to call it a day.

 

[TBapp3]

WOW Dave it has gotten done quick, and you seemed worried...Great job!

BTW the chrome blower looks amazing!!!

The heater hose on the firewall Dave??

Those suck ass!!! You really need 3 hands, but 2 will have to do.

Push the fittings towards the firewall, then press the release tab.


Looks great!!!!! soon to be whining like the fat kid who skipped lunch

 

[06RFSTANG]

The heater hose that come out of the firewall and attach to the tubes at the back of the block.I just cant get the stock clamps back on(no room)with the pliers I have.I guess there is a special tool for them clamps that would be easier.I wonder if I can just get screw type clamps to replace them

Looks GREAT Dave

I always thought about a s/c but it seems like most people have issues afterwards,blown h/g, blown intake gaskets,oil blowing out of seals.It just seems like Id be chasing issues.

The trick is to not over boost it UNLESS it's built to handle it
5 out of my last 6 vehicles have been supercharged (the other one was a 420 HP 6.1 Hemi ) Once I was Blown there was no going back...

 

[06RFSTANG]

Looking good Dave..Good luck with it..Who is going to be tunning it ?

Thanks Nick..I had Roush racalibrate the PCM for now.I want to get some other things done then get a good dyno tune for it

 

[06RFSTANG]

Almost ready

Just have to add fluids and put the pcm in and put the bumper and wheels back on.Hopefully get it done this weekend.Then it will be time to say some prayers and hope it starts up and I didnt screw anything up

 

[Timspony]

Very nice Dave....did the kit come with a base tune?

 

[06RFSTANG]

I had to send the pcm to roush for them to recalibrate it

 

[TBapp3]

SWEET!
