Vortech V-3 Si-Trim Supercharger Complete System - Black w/Charge Cooler (2005-2006 Mustang 4.6 GT) | 4FU218-024L
Vortech V-3 Si-Trim Complete Supercharger System for 2005-2006 Mustang GT 4.6L 3V
Vortech offers fully calibrated complete supercharging systems for the 2005-2008 4.6L 3-Valve Mustang GT, engineered for both manual and automatic transmission vehicles. This system features the highly efficient V-2 or V-3 Si-Trim centrifugal supercharger paired with an air-to-water charge cooler for consistent power delivery and reduced intake temperatures.
In high-output configuration, this system increases your stock 4.6L Mustang GT to 462 horsepower and 419 lb-ft of torque with up to 10 PSI of boost at factory redline using 91-octane fuel.
Advanced Vortech Si-Trim Technology
The 4.6L 3V Mustang GT system utilizes Vortech's V-2 or V-3 Si-Trim supercharger, developed through extensive testing in Vortech's lab. The Si-Trim features a state-of-the-art centrifugal compressor stage and delivers an industry-leading 78% adiabatic efficiency (SAE J1723), resulting in lower heat generation, reduced parasitic loss, and increased net power output.
Less heat also translates to improved durability under sustained boost conditions. Vortech centrifugal systems weigh significantly less than many competing designs, further improving performance and reliability.
Superior Centrifugal Supercharging
Centrifugal superchargers generate greater airflow and pressure than roots-type blowers while operating more efficiently. Vortech supercharger systems deliver exceptional value, producing more horsepower per dollar than virtually any other power-adding modification. Under normal driving conditions, fuel economy may even improve.
