Chip put out horsepower? Okay I reeally don't quite understand, but if you have a Mustang with a blower on it and you are asking how to make the computer put out more power, you really REALLY need to get some education on what you have and how it works, as a car with a blown V8 can be a dagerous and very expensive situation if you do not know how to keep it tuned or can not afford to pay someone to do it. You can blow head gaskets and melt pistons and stuff...  Signature"Network management is like trying to herd cats." -- Unknown "I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges?" -- TazAmd - Humor Section Gettingtogather.com I didn't quite understand the question myself. I have a 2000 GT (yellow convert, a beauty) and am interested supercharging it. Does anyone have experience with this? I'd like to make an informed decision and finding good info on the whole process is hard to come by. What kind of increase in HP could I expect? Any cooling issues with a supercharger? Do the kits adjust the engine computer? Thanks in advance! I Have a 2002GT Vortech S-Trim, No intercooler. Seeing about 10lbs boost at redline. Dynoed 370 RWHP and 360 RW Torque. Assuming 15% losses that is about 370/.85 = 435HP at the flywheel about 175HP gain over the stock 260. No cooling problems at all. Drives like stock untill you get on it. Car has a custom burned SCT Chip to take care of the computer. Good Luck Rob >I didn't quite understand the question myself. > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > >Thanks in advance! Information is in abundance all you have to do is look. Go to meets, shows etc, ask questions in on-line forums - who dyno tunes in "insert your area"...then talk to the tuners/installers. http://www.procharger.com/ http://www.kennebell.net/index.htm http://powerdyne.com/ http://www.kennebell.net/index.htm http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com/ http://www.allenengine.com/01must1.html http://www.corral.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=311 supercharger forum To answer your question, Vortech SQ - non-intercooled, tune on 94 octane 369 RWHP - 366 TQ @9-9.5lb boost. (395RWHP - 388 TQ when running the Snow Performance water/methanol injection) This is a daily driver - 24/365 so the tune isn't radical. Any more boost and I'd have to "build" the engine to handle the stress and maintain the daily driver aspect. Shop recommended a 180° thermostat. Pretty sure all kits come with a chip.. opted for the SCT multi instead. G'luck.

I'm really torn between getting one of those 2006 Shelby GT models. Car and Drive guesses around 475hp versus keeping the 2000 GT ragtop and supercharging that. Of course one is a lot cheaper than the other. Guess I just have to wait until I can test drive one of those Shelby's. All the best, Bill > I got a 2000 MustangGT Supercharge.

There are probably 4-5 differant companies that make superchargers, and 1-2 companies that make turbocharger kits for your car. Go to your local book store and check out the magazine rack. That's a good place to start. Go to your local cruise night and start asking around. Most people with tricked out Fords can help guide you, and there's nothing better than one on one communication. Depending on where you live, there's probably a shop not too far away that does this for a living. If you're anywhere near Denver, I can help with that.
