Vortech Tuner Kit w/ V-2 Si-Trim - Polished (2001 Mustang Bullitt 4.6L 2V) 4FL218-098SQ
Polished V-2 Si-Trim Tuner Supercharger Kit for 2001 Mustang Bullitt
The Vortech Superchargers Tuner Kit with V-2 Si-Trim (PN 4FL218-098SQ) is engineered specifically for the 2001 Ford Mustang Bullitt equipped with the 4.6L 2-valve engine. Featuring a show-quality polished finish, this tuner kit delivers Vortech's proven centrifugal supercharger hardware while giving experienced builders and racers full control over fuel system selection and engine calibration.
On a properly prepared stock Bullitt engine, this setup is capable of safely increasing output from 265 horsepower to 390 horsepower and torque from 305 lb-ft to 396 lb-ft. As a tuner kit, it is intended for custom builds where off-the-shelf fuel components and factory-style calibrations are not desired.
V-2 Si-Trim Supercharger Technology
The V-2 Si-Trim centrifugal supercharger is an engine oil-fed design that utilizes Vortech's SQ (Super Quiet) gear-driven technology for quiet operation and exceptional durability. The high-efficiency impeller and housing design - developed in Vortech's supercharger test cell - delivers strong airflow with controlled heat generation under sustained boost.
Integrated oil feed and oil drain assemblies provide consistent lubrication and cooling, making the V-2 Si-Trim well suited for extended high-performance and racing use.
Tuner Kit Configuration Explained
Tuner kits are the same as complete systems except they do not include fuel system upgrades or ECM reprogramming. This allows tuners and racers to choose custom fuel injectors, pumps, engine management, and ignition strategies tailored to specific power goals.
This configuration is intended for experienced users and competition-focused builds where custom tuning is required.
High Output System Capability
With increased boost and the addition of an integrated air-to-water, dual-pass charge cooler, high-output configurations are capable of raising performance from 265 horsepower to 415 horsepower and torque from 305 lb-ft to 402 lb-ft.
Charge-cooled configurations require a battery relocation kit (PN 8N150-010, sold separately).
