Hi Guys,

for my buddy I'm looking for a respectable tuner that does supercharger packages for the new Mustang V8
(and also for the Raptor)


with the V8 not being sold alot in Belgium knowledge is restricted.


Do you guys have any hands on experience with companies in the UK, Benelux, further away?

thanks

Buy Whipple Stage 2 kit, run it with their canned tune which is good and around 650HP crank.

When he wants more power, get a custom tune from Lund Racing in the USA, will be 700+ then, job done.

If he wants more he can go long tune headers (50-70HP) gain on an FI car and he could even pulley down on the supercharger which is then around 850HP.

Also remember upgrading the OPG/Sprocket is really heavily advised as its the weak link of the Coyote 5.0 engine, about $600 in parts and 6-8hr to install, so do it whilst fitting the blower. smile

Check out GT101 - they have fitted Whipple kits to Mustang (and lots of Ford GTs) they also look after a number of Raptors.

This GT101 have done a lot more supercharger installs on the S550.

Please make sure you do the OPG, they really do break in these cars and when they break, the engine is toast! Parts and labour for OPG is about 1k, an engine is 10k+
