Polished V-7 JT-Trim Competition Tuner Supercharger Kit for Coyote Mustang
The Vortech Superchargers Tuner Kit with V-7 JT-Trim (PN 4FQ218-128JT) is a race-focused centrifugal supercharger system engineered for 2011-2014 Ford Mustang GT 5.0L applications demanding maximum airflow and horsepower potential. This configuration features Vortech's V-7 JT-Trim supercharger, an 8-rib drive system, a competition air inlet, and a high-visibility polished finish.
Designed for experienced builders and professional tuners, this tuner kit provides the hardware foundation required for extreme Coyote builds where custom fuel systems and calibration are mandatory.
V-7 JT-Trim Supercharger Technology
The V-7 JT-Trim is Vortech's highest-flow centrifugal compressor, capable of supporting up to 1,000 horsepower on properly modified engines. It is designed for sustained high-RPM, high-boost operation and is commonly used in competition, drag racing, and extreme street/strip applications.
This supercharger utilizes an engine oil-fed lubrication system, providing superior cooling and durability compared to self-contained units when operating under continuous heavy load.
8-Rib Drive & Competition Air Inlet Configuration
This kit is equipped with an 8-rib supercharger drive, allowing approximately 33% more drive capacity than a 6-rib system. The increased belt contact area reduces slip, improves belt life, and maintains consistent supercharger speed at elevated boost levels.
The competition air inlet is designed to minimize restriction and support the extreme airflow demands of the V-7 JT-Trim compressor.
