What would be the top speed penalty loos with a 3.73 compared to the original ?
Also what spark plugs should I go with the supercharger ? One step colder iridium IX ?
Any other mods that you would recomand going with the supercharger ?
My list is:
- long headers, full 2.5" exhaust
- 3.73 gears
- ati procharger stage 2
- lowering springs - What brand should I go with: Ford Racing or Eibach or H&R ?. Do you know if the Eibach drag kit drops the suspensions or it sits as high as stock ?
- 18x10 rear wheels.

one step colder for at first, you may need two steps colder if you're running big boost.

for an 07 you'll need a different plug from the mid 08-09, they list them separately.

it's just an ad-hoc event on a deserted airfield, nothing organized.
something like drag wars....it's still fun, never heard of anyone being hurt in 10 years since I go to such weekends...
but you're right: never do this at home, go to a proper drag race strip.
unfortunatly here in europe there aren't so many......
