Vortech Superchargers Tuner Kit - V-2 SCi-Trim & Charge Cooler - Satin (1999 Mustang Cobra 4V 4.6) 4FR218-100SQ
Satin V-2 SCi-Trim Tuner Supercharger Kit for 1999 Mustang Cobra 4V
The Vortech Superchargers Tuner Kit with V-2 SCi-Trim and Charge Cooler (PN 4FR218-100SQ) is designed for 1999 Ford Mustang Cobra models equipped with the 4V 4.6L DOHC engine. Finished in a durable satin coating, this system delivers Vortech's proven centrifugal supercharger performance for high-horsepower, custom-tuned builds where flexibility and airflow capacity are critical.
This package is offered strictly as a tuner kit, meaning it includes the complete supercharger and charge cooler hardware but does not include fuel system upgrades or ECU calibration. Complete systems for this platform have been discontinued, making this tuner kit the ideal solution for enthusiasts and racers looking to push the factory Cobra combination beyond its original limits.
V-2 SCi-Trim Supercharger Technology
The V-2 SCi-Trim is a gear-driven centrifugal supercharger engineered for high-output street and race applications. Utilizing Vortech's SQ (Super Quiet) gear technology, the SCi-Trim provides smooth, quiet operation with excellent durability. With proper engine modifications and professional tuning, this compressor is capable of supporting up to 725 horsepower.
The V-2 series superchargers share the engine's oiling system, making them well-suited for applications that experience sustained boost conditions such as road racing or extended high-load operation. This design also allows for the optional addition of external oil cooling or filtration when required.
Tuner Kit Configuration Explained
Vortech tuner kits are mechanically complete supercharger systems supplied without fuel management components or ECM reprogramming. This configuration allows experienced tuners to select injectors, fuel delivery solutions, and calibration strategies tailored to specific engine combinations and performance goals.
This flexibility makes tuner kits ideal for modified engines, race applications, or builds where off-the-shelf calibrations are not desired.
