I have a 2004 Mustang GT with 21k on the OD and 1K on the motor. I recently had a vortech supercharger on it for two weeks, then it blew up. It dynoed out a 363whp and 366wtq at 9psi, 12:1 F/A ratio and 16 degrees of timing. Four spark plugs got demolished and cyclinder number 8 was dead. I want to put the supercharger back on. Can you tell me what was wrong with the original setup and why it blew. Also, what air-fuel ratio should I run and what should the timing be at. I am not looking for monster power, but just reliable power. Thanks
