Vortech Supercharging System w/ V-2 Si-Trim & Charge Cooler - Satin (2001 Mustang Bullitt 4.6L 2V) 4FL218-080SQ
Satin V-2 Si-Trim High-Output Supercharger System for 2001 Mustang Bullitt
The Vortech Supercharging System with V-2 Si-Trim and integrated charge cooler (PN 4FL218-080SQ) is a complete, CARB-approved high-output centrifugal supercharger system engineered specifically for the 2001 Ford Mustang Bullitt equipped with the 4.6L 2-valve engine. Finished in a durable satin coating, this system combines Vortech's proven V-2 Si-Trim with an air-to-water, dual-pass charge cooling system to deliver substantial, repeatable power with excellent thermal control.
As a charge-cooled configuration with increased boost, this system raises performance from 265 horsepower to 415 horsepower and torque from 305 lb-ft to 402 lb-ft on a stock engine, while maintaining the smooth, linear power delivery Vortech centrifugal systems are known for.
V-2 Si-Trim Supercharger Technology
The V-2 Si-Trim centrifugal supercharger is an engine oil-fed design utilizing Vortech's SQ (Super Quiet) gear-driven technology for quiet operation and outstanding long-term reliability. Developed in Vortech's supercharger test cell, the high-efficiency impeller and housing design delivers strong airflow with reduced heat generation.
Dedicated oil feed and oil drain assemblies provide consistent lubrication and cooling under sustained boost, making the V-2 Si-Trim a trusted solution for dependable high-performance street use.
Integrated Air-to-Water Charge Cooling
This system features a fully integrated air-to-water, dual-pass charge cooler designed to significantly reduce intake air temperatures under boost. The closed-loop, maintenance-free design increases air density, supporting higher boost levels and additional horsepower with improved consistency.
Note: Charge-cooled systems require a battery relocation kit (PN 8N150-010, sold separately).
Fuel Management & System Integration
This complete system includes a fuel management upgrade intended for stock engine configurations. Vortech supplies calibration and components designed for factory engines running stock exhaust systems or most aftermarket cat-back exhausts.
Important: Vortech does not provide tuning for vehicles equipped with aftermarket throttle bodies, cold air intakes, headers, off-road mid-pipes, or other engine modifications. Modified vehicles will require custom tuning, and not all ECU box codes are supported.
