im thinking and looking to turbo my stang i have been a big fan of the turbo. the Q is it worth putting a turbo on the 4.6 and if i do go turbo when im done with the 5.0 build will the kit work on the 5.0 or should i wait and get the 5.0 done and then go turbo after the swap is done. and where can i find turbo kits for my motor and should i buy used to get a better deal. thanks

I thought you tried that electric SuperCharger and didn't have very good luck? tongue.gif

There are electric superchargers, they are damn expensive, and I doubt that it adds much more power than it takes to spin the alternator big enough to keep it running. Turbo the damn thing and be done with it. That or get a paxton, but I don't know as I would screw with an electric.

 

And before someone says it. No I am not talking about that shit on ebay for 50 bucks. 3500 will get you an electric, and the thing will draw 90 amps to run it.
