i guess the high compression is a non factor LOL! sweet!

 

[imbuggin]

so are they putting this on a new stock 5.0 block??

 

[Ear Rak]

bye bye terminators and stock blower gt500's

 

[Drlee50]

based on the power output at 7 psi, i am going to say they are super conservative on the tune for the 12 mo warranty. it should make 600 on 7 psi. the 9 psi tune is probably conservative too but thats gotta be near the limit for the stock rods. sweet deal on 11:1 compression.

Good luck trying to run any decent amount of boost on that motor! But it is cool that they are offering it, which was a given once they said the gt350 would have one.

 

[Wiked03]

looks like the 2 levels they offer are just 7 or 9 lbs of boost on 93 octane.

I also assume their HP numbers are NOT rwhp.

$7500 is a lot of fricken money!

Its a lot, but a New GT + FRPP Supercharger = Faster then GT500 and Cheaper.

true, but i would still wait till they sell the blower without the warranty and ridiculous install fees

till the high compression motor goes boom cause the gas station had bad gas.

All those numbers are at the crank.

Make the warranty worth it... come month 11 just beat the fuck out of it till it takes a dump.

 

[01Cobra]

boom

 

[Shade]

Wow!

Like others have stated, this is a recipe for disaster. Does the 5.0 have Forged internals?

Forged crank and rods, and i believe hypereutectic (sp?) pistons.

So roasting a piston is the only real scare here?

The Boss is all forged :dancenana:


...and apparently is all primed and ready for 8500rpms

I don't think ford would offer the kit with a warranty if it was gonna blow up.

Also notice, they only offer the warranty on the 525 hp kit. the 624 and tuner kit are warrantyless

 

[Dragon03]

I wonder what a turbo kit would do?

it wouldnt do a thing unless you had nitto's out back...
