I'll try to scan and copy this for you, but Vortech just announced in April Motor Trend they just finished a BULLITT only supercharger with an Inter cooler!!! I think it said around 4K. And promised 150 more H.P.. Who needs a 2003 Cobra now!!!!!! Something was mentioned about not having to run a line to the oil pan too. WOW!!! Don't flame me if my figures aren't exactly right, just read it briefly at work. On my way to the news stand now to confirm numbers.Sorry it is NOT Vortech, it's ProCharger.

WOW, now that is something to look into. To bad it will void the warranty.

What's a 3001 Cobra run on?

Pony XTC · Mar 5, 2002

The 03 Cobra is a Supercharged DOHC 4.6. Gray Iron block just like ours. Except we are SOHC. 390plus H.P. For Cobra. This would give us 400Plus!!!

Thanks darkhorse, I just caught the mistake myself. Just kind of excited ya know.

mustangmaniac · Mar 6, 2002

How does 390hp-396ft/lb torque sound or you can opt for the kit w/ a cooler and get 415hp 402ft/lbs of torque.390hp kit is $3770,415hp kit is $4893.

All of this sounds great but what about us poor %astards that have the "Death Rattle"? Do we dare add a supercharger in fear of self-destructing?

donwil · Mar 6, 2002

Bullitt4995,
I am one of those poor "basturds" with the death rattle. Just waiting for the warranty to run out then I will be adding a SC. By the looks of it I will be adding the Eaton, but will reinvestigate when the mileage gets closer.

I have a Vortech aftercooled on my Bullitt here is a line, they have had this setup available for some time http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com/yourcar/01mustang_bullitt.html

Yeap that's the Vortech Web Site that got me infected with "the Mod Disease." Once you get it, it is hard to stop. BTW, the Vortech works great, but ensure a good tune. Better to be blown that get blown away :smile: .

Sorry everyone, it is NOT vortech, but Pro Charger.

strokerswild · Mar 6, 2002

Any chance of an article scan? ProCharger doesn't seem to have any info on their site about it yet.

Walkman003309 · Mar 6, 2002

Don't forget the 03 Cobra has forged internals and we don't!!!!!!!!!!

schmedlap · Mar 7, 2002

Walkman, you make a very very critical point! The '03 Cobra engine is NOT the same engine as the current engine. Even though having a blower is enticing, our engines are not made for a blower. Just like when GM came out with the turbocharges Corvair Spyder! They just hung the turbo on the 102hp engine and did nothing else except claim 150hp. That's why all of them keept burning #1 valve. I went thru a valve every 3 months with that car, although it did run good in between valves.

mustangmaniac · Mar 7, 2002

I personally think,you don't need forged internals.As long as you go with a conservative tune,and not try to put to much boost in the motor I think you will be O.K.If you run Nitrous,now we have a whole different ballgame.

'Have BULLITT will travel' · Mar 7, 2002

PonyXTC, Autorotor 3150 may be the way to go DHG 1005 is getting one soon. Kenne Bell test in MM&FF April 2002 reads good about this twin-screw supercharger and it runs real cool and can make up to 419 HP.

on your six ... DHG 1005

Bullitt/gg · Mar 7, 2002

I have actually called Procharger and according to the woman I spoke to on the phone the "so called" Bullitt only supercharger is the same as the one for the regular GT. The woman on the other end of the phone said that the only difference might be the computer chip that comes with the package. And she wasn't even sure of this. I am going to try and call back again at another time to see if I can talk to someone else and maybe get some different information. Motortrend did print that Procharger had a Bullitt specific supercharger system. And yes it is self lubricating--there is no need to supply lube from your oil pan.

Forced · Mar 8, 2002

Not to knock Procharger, but how can the GT and Bullitt kits be the same with the different manifolds?
