What I saw at the Ford dealer.

After I replaced the torque converter, I went to Ford to flush my tranny fluid since it was dark and smelled badly.
While waiting, I took a walk around and saw some interesting stuff, including a 2009 Mustang with 4.6 3 valve v8 identical to the one I just pulled from my truck but with a supercharger. All kind of ideas starter running thru my head The supercharger is not much taller than the stock intake so the hood would clear, the intake tube could be custom built from the air box:

These are 2 pix of the 2009 with "Explorer" motor.

And some other cool stuff:

575 hp, 505 tq

Yeah, I had forgotten about the fact that those years are the last of the V8 mustangs. That setup would drive the RSC system crazy on our vehicles, but sounds like a good time anyway.

I'm sure you already know Brenspeed sells supercharger kit for 4th gen V8 Explorers?

No, I had no idea, never really searched for that.
But at $ 7000 that' s expensive.
