Vortech High Output Complete Supercharger System - V-1 H/D Ti, Satin (1986-1993 Mustang 5.0) 4FA218-040T
High Output Satin V-1 H/D Ti Supercharger System for Fox Body Mustang 5.0
The Vortech Superchargers High Output Complete System (PN 4FA218-040T) is a fully calibrated, bolt-on centrifugal supercharger package engineered for 1986-1993 Ford Mustang 5.0L applications. Finished in a durable satin coating, this system utilizes Vortech's Heavy Duty V-1 Ti compressor paired with an air-to-water charge cooling system to deliver strong, repeatable power with the durability required for aggressive street and track use.
This is a complete, street-legal system - not a tuner kit - designed to integrate cleanly with the Fox Body platform while providing reliable high-output performance when installed as intended.
V-1 H/D Ti Supercharger Technology
The V-1 Heavy Duty Ti centrifugal supercharger is designed for demanding performance applications and is capable of supporting up to 950 horsepower depending on engine configuration and custom tuning. This unit features a robust gear-driven design and is engine-oil-lubricated, making it well-suited for sustained high-load operation.
Because the V-1 H/D Ti is engine-oil-fed, it requires oil feed and drain connections. For extreme-duty or track-focused applications, a dedicated oil cooler and/or filter can be added to further enhance thermal control and longevity.
Air-to-Water Charge Cooling Advantage
For Fox Body Mustangs, Vortech employs an air-to-water charge cooler system to minimize pressure loss. Unlike air-to-air systems that route charge air through long tubing paths and large cooler cores, this configuration keeps the airflow path short - resulting in virtually no boost loss compared to non-cooled versions.
Charge cooling delivers cooler, denser air, increasing power output, reducing the detonation threshold, and allowing greater tuning flexibility at higher boost levels.
System Output & Configuration
This High Output system operates in the 7-9 PSI range and is engineered as a complete, fully calibrated package. Vortech also offers Fox Body Mustang systems as tuner kits for extreme custom applications exceeding 2,500-3,000+ horsepower, but this specific part number represents a turnkey street system using the Heavy Duty V-1 Ti supercharger.
