- Our Mustang system features our ultra-efficient V-3 compressor. Continual development in our test lab resulted in the Si model, which achieves a peak adiabatic efficiency of 78% [SAE J1723 standard]. The "i" stands for improved and with its new, patented oil control system and state of the art centrifugal compressor stage this V-3 Si literally blows away the competition. High efficiency means less heat is being generated, drive power is reduced and more net power is produced. Less heat also means better durability. All V-3 series superchargers have a self-contained lubrication system that makes installation fast and easy. The entry-level system uses the lower boost V-3 SCi.
- For the Fox body Mustangs, Vortech uses an air-to-water charge cooler system to minimize pressure loss. Unlike the air-to-air systems for this application, that send charge air on a long trip through several bends plus a long cooler core, the charge air does not travel any further than the non-cooled version, so there is virtually no boost loss. Charge cooling means cooler, denser air that yields more power and reduces the detonation threshold while allowing higher boost options.
- Vortech offers a bargain priced entry-level supercharger systems that allow you to build and improve as your budget allows. Upgrades can be matched to meet your end goal whether street scene or all out racer.
Superior Technology
- Centrifugal superchargers easily make more pressure and flow than a roots type blower and are much more efficient. Read our Roots vs Centrifugal comparison to see the numbers.
- Vortech supercharger systems are a great value. Dollar for dollar, Vortech systems deliver more horsepower than virtually any other method of upgrade. Also, driven normally, gas mileage often increases rather than decreases.
Available Supercharger Finishes
- Multiple kit finishes available. For that fully integrated look, V-3 Si 7-9 PSI 5.0 Mustang systems are available in stylish black finish. Satin and Polished units are also available.
5-6 PSI Entry-Level Systems
- The entry level 5-6 PSI, V-3 SCi model is perfect for the budget minded enthusiast. The system can be upgraded later to higher output systems.
7-9 PSI Systems
- These systems include the choice of the V-2 or V-3 Si with helical cut gear set, or the V-1 Ti compressor capable of up to 950 HP (depending on your modifications and custom tuning).
7-9 PSI High-Output (H.O.) Charge Cooled Systems
- The V-3 Si and V-1 Ti systems are also available in high-output charge cooled models (with air/water charge cooler).
Tuner Kits
- Tuner kits with the V-2 Si, V-3 Si, and V-1 Ti are also available for modified vehicles that require higher output fuel components and/or custom tuning.
V-3 Systems: No Oil Lines Necessary
- Systems that include the V-3 internally lubricated supercharger do not require a connection between the oil pan and gearcase (V-1 and V-2 systems are engine oil fed and require oil lines).
System Components and Features
- - Technologically advanced, high-efficiency impeller and housing design developed in our SAE J1723 compliant supercharger test cell.
- - Cast aluminum supercharger mounting bracket assembly includes idler, drive belt and all hardware.
- - Discharge duct connections utilize heat resistant silicon sleeves and premium quality stainless steel clamps.
- - High-flow bypass valve provides for surge-free compressor operation (except entry-level).
- - Complete bolt-on system including all necessary belts, pulleys and hardware.
CARB Compliance
- Tuner Kits are NOT CARB legal, and are legal in California only for racing vehicles which may never be used, or registered or licensed for use, upon a highway (off-road use only). The manufacture, sale, offer for sale, or installation of this product may also be illegal under the federal clean air act (42 U.S.C. § 7522(A)(3)).
Installation
- Multiple system options for this application available. Installation time varies by system.
