I am looking at a S/C setup for my car. I already have 70 mmTB, ported upper intake, and Steeda pulleys on it. The question is will I need to go back to the stock pulleys to run the S/C or are the two compatible?

Bump - I can't believe it! No answers yet!</P>


Another question - With stock internals, I am planning about 8-10 psi. I was leaning toward 42 lb injectors with a Walbro 255 lph pump, but will 30 or 36 lb meet my needs?</P>

I'd ask steeda about the pulley deal...36lb injectors would be just fine for your application</P>

Check out the Mongoose kit from here. http://www.modularfordpowerhouse.com/Tim can answer any and all questions about a supercharger set up.</P>


You can't use underdrive pullies with a supercharger. </P><edited><editID>Snydaleid</editID><editDate>37972.9809490741</editDate></edited>

Thanks for the site! I talked with Steeda and they confirmed the same thing - U/D pulleys will cause underpull on the S/C.

Procharger told me that to run 8 psi, i need 42lb injectors, but couldnt you put asmaller pulley on the blower to make up for the underdrive

With the Mongoose kit all you'll need is 30lb injectors. Call Tim up or send him an E-mail. He'll hook you right up. <IMG src=smileys/smiley20.gif border="0"></P>

you'll have to go back to your stock crank pulley, the others can stay assuming you can get the belt to fit properly. </P>


you are mad if you want to push more than 6lbs on stock internals. granted its a good type of mad but insane nonetheless. 8 lbs is really pushing it, 10 is way too much. if you want 8 or 10 and want more than 10k extra miles from that motor, save yourself alot of trouble later by putting in forged internals now.</P>

dual fuel pump system is the key w/ steeda's tech tranfer system talk to jason at steeda they will fix you up!!!

Stock internals not being able to handle 8lbs safely? Now I must admit this is news to me. Every S/C kit that I have researched has advertised 8-10 psi ready to set-up on a stock engine (7psi with a paxton). The folks at the performance shops I have talked with told me the same thing, that 8-10 was safe.Do you have personal experience that says otherwise? I appreciate the help so I definitely want to know.</P>


If I need to get forged internals first, what would you rec Monch? I am looking around now and not finding much for an '02 GT other than FRPP PI heads. What have you got on your '03?</P>


I'll probably send Tim an E-mail, that Mongoose kit looks greatbut I also have now started giving the Saleen kit a second look.</P>
