An On3 install kit would be really helpful
Good! Keep it up!
I got the V6 Vortech for chevy camaro i need installed good vid!
do a on3 turbo kit next please
Please do a detailed on 3 turbo install. You would make so much more on sales.
If you use a cream hand cleaner without any grit, you can apply a small amount to your hose connections and it will help the hose slip on easier. It dissolves without any residue
great video I was debating wether I was going to install a vortech or Paxton I guess we'll see after part deuce..
w garcia just an fyi, Vortech now owns Paxton. I've had almost all of them. The Novi and V series are almost identical. I run a procharger now. but I'm looking for a low mileage 1993 hatchback to put my YSI on.
Would really like to see that complete fuel line replacement video!
I installed one of these over a weekend on the garage floor in Michigan when it was 0 degrees out. First time I had the car out, the water pump mounted mechanical fan broke and took out the radiator and hoses. After I replaced all that stuff (cheap as heck on a Fox), I drove it for about a week until I blew the motor. I sold the whole car for a little more than I paid for the blower kit. The end.
An On3 turbo kit install would be great, just like another comment suggested!
I've added that ideo to our video list. No promises or guarantees, but be on the lookout. You just never know what we're going to do. ;) -Landan
Late Model Restoration +1 on that on3 kit install
Late Model Restoration I’d let you guys use my car for the install 😉😉
my 86 made 325/330 with rpm performers heads a f cam and a ported explorer intake. this car must be on 4 degress of timing to make that little power stock
They make it look easy but it was a pain in the butt when I put mine on! lol. It makes it a lot harder when the car is 20+ years old. Stuff is rusted, warped, brittle, etc..
Those baseline numbers though ouch. And that's with some mods. Can't wait to see what some boost does.
if you dont have a smog pump does it still bolt on the same just dont bolt the smog pump
Might be a dumb question but can I put this on my 92 5.0 gt convertible? I ask because I want to make sure I will be able to route the wires to the back in the trunk
have you guys done a NOS install video? for us poor backyard guys who can't afford this stuff lol
Im looking at the kit similar to this one but its the self lubricated supercharger with 5-6lbs of boost. What spark plugs would you recommend that kit and with gt40x heads and also if I have a smog delete will that change how I put the alternator on the supercharger bracket? Thanks.
sounds like you have idle issues. Maybe raise the idle speed until it smooths out on startup. I had those hard starts on my trick flow kit. raised idle to 950 and it starts and idles like stock only higher idle speed
when you found out the supercharger is more expensive then the car worth
Mustang98 3919 that blower is only 2 grand!
this kit is non inter cooler that why
and for fox body i would not pay more then 1000 chances are the car is beat up most of them
Mustang98 3919
You're definitely getting a beat up one if you're not gonna spend more then 1k
Haha that was 10 years ago. Now pos fox bodies are $5000
If you can install this an ON3 would be easier, just take your time. I just purchased this set up and sold my ON3. Nothing was wrong with the ON3 just like to keep it smog legal since they have mobile smog check points now.
Haven't been on here in a while. Is J-MAC still around? He use to make some really good how to videos for the Fox Body. Well thanks for the video
I've asked before and I've seen a few others ask and no one ever replies, so I'm guessing he isn't. That's too bad. I liked his videos.
I need to know the widest possible Tire I can fit without any modifications planning on doing it 5 lug swap soon
Here is a link that will help you learn more about Fox Body wheels and tires fitment. This will show you what needs to be done to allow the largest tire to be fitted. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

On3 turbo next
Could you ditch the fmu and trex fuel pump if you went bigger injectors and bigger aftermarket fuel pump?
Marcus - Yes, you can. This is what we ended up doing while we tried to diagnose a fuel issue. Be sure and watch part 3 to see what happened! It's pretty crazy!
Part 3: ua-cam.com/video/SaZJTIT51no/v-deo.html
-Landan
That looks like a lot of rinky tink annoying work. I'd like to see the On3 installed to see what it's like comparatively. I hate jobs like this cause since you have the accessories off the front you might as well change the water pump and upgrade tha damper and while you have that off you might as well change the cam and while you have that out you might as well change the valve seals and rockers and since you have those off it'd be a good time for a better head swap and since...
Ha ha ha ha , God i know what you mean, i hate that.
yep like every other project lol
Honestly most of this video is installing the FMU and pusher pump. You don't need a pusher pump if you run something like an Aeromotive 340 in the tank, and you definitely don't need a FMU if you run 60 lb injectors and a standalone ECU and tune. The second part of the video - installing the head unit, charge pipe and belt drive - is only 5 minutes long. Self-contained centrifugal superchargers are pretty much the most simple way to run any sort of forced induction.
The samething for the sn95 5.0 would be much appreciated.
Bryant - I will pass this idea to our Video Production Team. Thanks! -Landan
So much easier to just replace the in tank pump imo.
What will that do ?
What keeps the pulley from rubbing up against the backside of the supercharger?
There is a raised boss that prevents the pulley from rubbing against the supercharger. -Landan
What size tires are those on the front and rear?
Good video but there was an error in showing the alternator and describing it as the smog pump and then going on saying to disconnect the electrical connecter from the smog pump .....oh boy
Will the smog pump delete pulley work in place of the smog pump on the provided bracket?
Yes. Our 5.0 Resto smog pump delete pulley and bracket will work with Vortech/Paxton supercharger brackets.
Smog pump delete: lmr.com/item/LRS-9486BL/79-95-Mustang-50L-Smog-Pump-Eliminator
-Landan
Landan, what size injectors is recommended when using this kit?
At least 36 lb injectors
I have a sbf 331 stroker making about 400hp. Do you think a vortech with only 5 to 6lb boost will show a difference in hp..
You should see some horsepower gains with that kit. Bump it up to around 10 lbs and you should see a major difference!
Hey want rachet head to last don't usin it manual my heads lasted didn't manual break bolts !
Any seats for a 93 coupe?
Whats the part number for those wheels what to buy some and those are badass
Here is the link to all of our Series 3 wheels: lmr.com/products/mustang-sve-series-3-wheels-94-04

Cutting the $150 blue hose
Real world time how long did this take you start to finish?
The average Joe in their driveway can usually have this on in a solid weekend. Shooting this video did take a few solid days, plus the additional troubleshooting we had on the fuel system took some time too.
HAHA smog pump!
Could you please direct me to the blow thru carb supercharger install
Thanks for the comment. We don't have an install video on that procedure. -Landan
Neat video. Now show how to LS swap lol.
Why slow it down?
Will this turbo work on a 93 mustang 2.3 liter lx
Unfortunately not, This is only for the 5.0L.
Can I add a supercharger to a 1983?
could I put this on my 99 v8 explorer
I'm sure you could. However, I'm not going to guarantee anything. -Landan
With enough money, all things are possible.
pssht go for it dude
Have you done this on a 94/95 GT?
Hi Anthony, we do not have a video install for 94-95 models. However, we do offer a kit for the SN models: lmr.com/item/VOR-4FG218020L/1994-1995-mustang-gt-vortech-supercharger-v3
The only place NJ wins: any vehicle made before 1996 is exempt from emissions inspection, we don't have safety inspection so there's no worries there.
Eh doesn't really matter since I believe a lot if not all vortech superchargers are 50 state legal. Induding commie California. Eh 1 year late but lol.
4:26 smog pump electrical connection?
Lol! Not sure what I was thinking there... ;) -Landan
Remove the coolant drain plug ours was messed up so we used lolll
damnn
the t tap hurt my soul. military spice it.
It's an edelbrock performer, not a performer rpm
Convoluted tubing, haha
Who knows what kinda wheels those r

Edward - That particular clip was taken from another video. -Landan

You guys need to edit out the stuttering
why didn't you delete the stupid smog pump and all of smog equipment
As a Canadian it pains me to watch you drill holes in that mint mustang. Then just go and screw it in with no paint, no anti-seize, or no rust proofing. To top it off you use those garbage scotch locks. It just hurts cause up here I would fixing that in a year
Those baseline numbers were horrible with that intake and head and cam should have been around 300-325+wheel. I’ve seen stock gt 40 headed and explorer manifold and a B cam make better than this thing like 290 wheel using stock ford parts.
Anyone want to tell that kid that is a turbo not a super charger
those are not decent numbers for all the aftermarket parts it's has on it! there is easily 3500 dollars worth of parts on it! so 30 hp for that is far from decent! that car came from the factory with 225 hp dead stock. I was getting 260 with my 1993 with just an intake kit, header back exhaust! when I put aluminum heads and elderbrook intake, I was at 348. there is something serious wrong with this car or tuner! I then added a V1 A-Trim and the car made 430. And that was on 6 lbs. I then switched to a ATI p600b and at 12 lbs I was at 520.
Edward Thayer 260 to the wheels with headers, exhaust and intake? that's awesome also did you notice you lost torque down low from just doing an intake swap with stock heads?
Your Flooring lol, not sure what your statement has to do with this car. but if that's all your car has then you did a good job!
