  • My 450HP Vortech Supercharged New Edge Mustang GT has 4.10 Gears and it HORRIBLE! Absolutely NO TRACTION and it doesn't compliment the way I drive or how I want to setup my car! Hope you enjoy the video and make sure to have a wonderful rest of your day!

    *There seems to be some confusion. My motor is NOT currently built! It is still a STOCK 4.6L 2V motor. I said in my last video that I will be building the motor in the next 2 months and increasing the redline to 7K with the use of heads, cams, ect.*

      Okay well you weren't making 450hp at the time of this video, those stock 2v max out about 350rwhp with a supercharger because of the cams and heads. We figured out 20 years ago that putting money into a 2v is a waste of time.

      Im currently doing research lol I have a kenne bell GT with 4.10s and I absolutely love it. I have some sumitomo all seasons that hook surprisingly well even in first gear. I have cams and longtubes I haven’t installed yet but I think I’m gonna wait until I get a built short block with some trickflow heads. I’ve taken down a few scat packs a couple of 10spd auto stangs and a couple of turbo mk4 golfs. I really don’t mind the rpm and gas mileage when cruising and I absolutely love the wow factor when giving friends a ride. Point is I was thinking about moving to a 3.55 or 3.73. I think I’m gonna stick to the 4.10 for now

    I agree with you on this one..3.55’s are probably one of the reasons terminators are such a roll racing legend..The people here saying that 4.10 boosted is better aren’t taking all variables and scenarios into consideration…even with cams and higher redline you will still be better off with 3.55 or 3.73 for well rounded performance..

Hes talking about rpm but the 4.6 will indeed run boosted to 6.5-7k w/ no issues as it only sees that higher rpm for a brief second vs being sustained. And then gas mileage, car will easily do 16-17 mpg city and 24-25 ish mpg highway, staying out of boost.... Considering stock is 17mpg city and 27 mpg highway... Really not much of a difference.

    I bought a 2001 mustang gt it came with a vortec v2 supercharger and it also has the 4:10 gears. I’ve owned the car for 2 weeks but I still haven’t figured out the sweet spot on my mustang at what speed does boost kick in? Does the car want to get redlined in first gear?

      Boost and rpm go together not speed/mph. You should start building boost around 2500-3000rpm.

      If your first gear is spinning at all then I would not recommend redline. Same thing if you're switching into 2nd and getting wheelspin, shifting early in 1st could limit the torque spiking. High RPM powershifting is fun af in these cars though.

      He has a v trim with a 2.95 pulley running about 15 lbs of boost no problem and thats on low end.

    I have a boosted 95 with 4.10’s and daily drive it and couldn’t be happier with them. My last dyno was with the stock 2.73’s and it put down 440whp. I’m also on a 315 Mickey Thompson street et. Street tires on this setup would not be fun.

      How many miles on your 95? I’m thinking about buying one with a built 302. I don’t know how many miles on the engine since it’s built but it’s 210 on body atleast
