Vortech Supercharger System w/ V-3 Si-Trim - Black w/ Charge Cooler (2007-2008 Mustang GT 4.6 3V) 4FU218-044L
Black V-3 Si-Trim Complete Supercharger System for 2007-2008 Mustang GT
The Vortech Supercharger System with V-3 Si-Trim (PN 4FU218-044L) is a complete, fully calibrated centrifugal supercharger system engineered specifically for 2007-2008 Ford Mustang GT models equipped with the 4.6L 3V engine. Finished in a factory-style black coating, this configuration includes a fully integrated air-to-water Charge Cooler for improved thermal control and consistent power delivery.
With the included calibration and 91-octane fuel, this system can increase output to approximately 462 horsepower and 419 lb-ft of torque at the flywheel, delivering up to 10 PSI of boost at factory redline depending on pulley selection.
V-3 Si-Trim Supercharger Technology
The V-3 Si-Trim centrifugal supercharger combines Vortech's self-contained lubrication system with the high-efficiency "Si" compressor stage. Rated at an industry-leading 78% adiabatic efficiency (SAE J1723), the V-3 Si-Trim produces less heat, reduces parasitic loss, and delivers greater net horsepower compared to lower-efficiency designs.
The self-contained oiling system eliminates external oil feed and drain lines, simplifying installation while maintaining excellent long-term durability.
Charge-Cooled Complete System Configuration
This is a true complete supercharger system, supplying the required fuel system upgrades and ECU calibration. A provided Diablosport In-Tune handheld programmer reflashes the factory ECM with a Vortech-developed calibration optimized for 91-octane fuel, preserving factory-like drivability.
The integrated air-to-water, dual-pass Charge Cooler reduces intake air temperatures under boost, helping maintain power consistency during repeated acceleration or extended high-load operation.
