Vortech Supercharger Complete System - V-3 JT-Trim - Black (2018-2023 Mustang GT) 4FQ218-234JT
Black V-3 JT-Trim Complete Supercharger System for 2018-2023 Mustang GT
The Vortech Superchargers V-3 JT-Trim Complete System (PN 4FQ218-234JT) is a fully engineered, emissions-compliant supercharger solution for 2018-2023 Ford Mustang GT 5.0L models. Finished in a factory-style black coating, this complete system delivers OEM-level drivability with proven Vortech performance, making it an ideal upgrade for street-driven Coyotes that demand reliable, repeatable power.
This is a complete, fully calibrated supercharger system, meaning it includes the required fuel system upgrades and ECU tuning needed for a true bolt-on installation. On applicable stock engines, the system is capable of producing 692 horsepower and 584 lb-ft of torque with 7.5-8.5 PSI of boost at factory redline when operated on 91-octane fuel.
V-3 JT-Trim Supercharger Technology
The V-3 JT-Trim centrifugal supercharger is the result of continued development in Vortech's engineering lab. Featuring a patented oil control system and an advanced centrifugal compressor stage, the JT-Trim achieves an industry-leading 76% adiabatic efficiency (SAE J1723). Higher efficiency means reduced heat generation, lower parasitic loss, and more usable power delivered to the rear wheels.
As with all Vortech centrifugal designs, boost rises progressively with engine speed, preserving excellent drivability while delivering strong top-end performance.
Complete System Advantages
Unlike tuner kits, this complete system includes a supplied handheld programmer that re-flashes the factory ECM with a safe Vortech calibration for 91-octane fuel. Fuel system upgrades are also included, eliminating the need for custom tuning and making this package ideal for enthusiasts seeking proven results with minimal complexity.
Complete systems are available for manual and automatic transmission vehicles on supported model years.
