Product Details
Complete System
  • 2007-2008 - Complete systems are available for manual and automatic transmission vehicles.

  • Complete, fully calibrated supercharging systems are available for the 2007-2008 4.6L 3V Mustang GT, featuring the V-2 or V-3 Si-Trim centrifugal supercharger with air-to-water charge cooler.

  • The complete high output system will boost your stock 2007-2008 Mustang GT to 462 HP and 419 lb/ft torque with 10 PSI from the V-2 or V-3 Si-Trim supercharger at the factory redline.

  • The 4.6L 3V Mustang GT systems utilize Vortech's V-2 or V-3 superchargers. Continued development in Vortech's Lab resulted in the Si-Trim Model. With its state of the art centrifugal compressor stage the Si-Trim literally blows away the competition. Industry leading 78% adiabatic efficiency [SAE J1723 standard] means less heat is being generated, drive power is reduced and more net power is produced. Less heat also means better durability. Also, Vortech's supercharger systems weigh less than half of the low-tech competing brands.

    • 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, S197 Mustang systems are available in factory matching black finish. Satin and Polished units are also available.

    • Complete System Included Components and Features
  • - V-2 or V-3 Si-Trim compressor with 3.80" drive pulley (Standard Output), 3.60" (High Output)

  • - These systems are not smog legal in California for 2005 model year vehicles built on or before April 30, 2005. For these particular vehicles, these systems 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)).

  • 2005-2006 Systems CARB Legal
  • - 2005 model year vehicles built after April 30th, 2005, and all 2006 model year vehicles are 50-State Emissions Legal per California Air Resources Board (CARB). CARB Executive Order # D-213-27

  • 2007 Systems No Longer Smog Legal
  • - 2007 Supercharging Systems produced after June 12, 2008 are not exempt. These systems 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)).

  • 2008-2010 Systems Not Smog Legal in California
  • - 2008-2010 systems 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)).

    • Optional Parts/Accessories

    8-Rib Drive Upgrade
  • 4FU116-001 - The 8-Rib pulley upgrade is a must for any high-output tuner kit. The extra two ribs allow 33% more drive power to be transmitted to the supercharger and also reduce slip that reduces power and shortens belt life.

    • Supercharger Pulleys
  • 6-Rib pulleys: 2A036-348, 2A036-333, 2A036-312, 2A036-287
  • 8-Rib pulleys: 2A038-348, 2A038-333, 2A038-312, 2A038-295

    • - Fuel Pump Voltage Booster
  • 5A102-038 - The Maxflow® Plug-and-Play Voltage Booster Assembly increases voltage to the fuel pump for increased flow to the injectors. Included harness plugs directly into factory connector for simple, "plug-and-play" installation.

    • Water Tank Upgrade For Air-to-Water Charge Cooler
  • 8N105-120 - Larger, 2 gallon water tank reservoir for air-to-water charge cooled setups. Recommended for competition use and/or open track racing, this upgraded water tank mounts in the factory battery tray location, and increases reservoir fluid volume by over 50%.
    • Bypass Valve Upgrades
  • Maxflow Race Bypass Valves - For applications running over 10 PSI, a larger Bypass Valve is required. This Race Bypass Valve features a 1.75" oval port discharge, and can be re-circulated back to the air inlet with minor modifications.
  • Bypass Splitter - Used in conjunction with the Race Bypass Valve on applications that require re-circulation, this 1.75" - 2x 1.0" bypass splitter allow you to run the larger Race Bypass Valve with only minor modification.
  • Weld-On Flange - Weld-on flange used to mount Maxflow Race Bypass Valve to existing discharge ducting.

    COMPLETE SYSTEM

    462HP - The complete system will boost your stock 4.6 GT to 462HP and 419 LB/FT Torque with 10 PSI from the V-3 Si-Trim Supercharger at factory redline using CA 91 Octane fuel.

    Complete, fully calibrated supercharging systems are available for the Manual and Automatic Transmission 2007-2008 4.6L 3V Mustang GT, featuring the V-3 Si-Trim centrifugal supercharger with air-to-water charge cooler.


    The S197 Mustang GT systems utilize the ultra-efficient V-3 Si-Trim compressor. Continued development in Vortechs Lab resulted in the V-3 Si model, which reaches a peak 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-Trim literally blows away the competition. High efficiency equates to less heat being generated, a reduction in power required to drive the compressor, and more net power being produced as a result. Less heat also equates to superior durability. Also, Vortechs supercharger systems weigh less than half of the low-tech competing brands.

    All V-3 series superchargers have a self-contained lubrication system that makes installation fast and easy.

    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 decrease.

    It's 100% worth it, 10 out of 10 would do it again. I don't see how I'll ever go back to a N/A V8 car. This is honestly too much fun. The power, the feeling, the sound will get you every time. If you like your N/A car, you'll like it even more boosted.

    Run on Vortech's own Mustang chassis dyno (lower numbers than a comparable Dynojet), the stock Bullitt produced 239 hp and 243 lb-ft of torque. Equipped with the standard Vortech kit, the peak power numbers jumped to 329 hp and 309 lb-ft of torque.

    The power I get out of this supercharger is just amazing... You can spin your tires going 70 mph if you hit boost going that fast its amazing.
