If I were going FI it's what I would probably do. Decent bonus and not the 10k+ for blowers/internals/etc for the big numbers
Ahh yea wait till am sale shows up
Department of Boost makes a manifold to adapt the gt500 (5.4) blower, ect to the 4.6...R&D is 99% complete, initial units are being sent out, and a couple have already been dyno tuned...pretty sweet deal, all for a little under what you have to spend...google "will a gt500 supercharger fit a gt?"

Hey Fuel what kind of power are you making and at what psi? And what where the extra that you went with that aren't required? I figure i will need larger injectors and possibly a fuel pump but I am pretty new to the modding game.

I went with 80 lb injectors and a GT500 fuel pump kit. ON a stock bottom end you could probably get away with just 39s and a bap if you wanted to. My car made 411hp 418tq on a conservative mustang dyno at 6lbs of boost. That was last year with a masterpower turbo and no cams. I havent' gotten the car all finished and tuned yet since installing cams and a precision billet wheel turbo. I have also put another spring in the wg and will be tuning on about 8lbs if I don't get my engine swapped out before spring.

FRPP 80lb Injectors Used $260
On3 Turbo Kit w/ MP T70 Turbo and HPX MAF New $2530
CMDP $70

Oil Restrictor $13.50
GT500 Fuel Pump Kit $630
Xcal 3 and HTOs Used $300
