Ford Racing Performance Parts Blower
We have to admit, by this time we were pretty excited. Chris readied the blower for installation, and then carefully lowered it on. After he torqued the bolts down to 20 ft-lb, we took a step back and admired the attitude that had just appeared under the hood. We then went back to work and installed the serpentine/blower belt that came with the kit.

Ford Racing Performance Parts Coil Packs
With the spark plugs already in, Winter put the coil packs back on and hooked up the harness. He then proceeded to perform all of the needed wiring for the throttle position sensor, mass air meter, and drive-by-wire. With all of these sensors being relocated to different areas, lengthening of the wires was necessary.

Ford Racing Performance Parts Inlet Tube
With the airbox in, Winter installed the stylish plastic inlet tube. Sealing the tube to the mouth of the blower and the airbox are two large rubber hoses that slip around the inlet tube. Once the tube was in place, the remaining vacuum lines were hooked up.

Ford Racing Performance Parts Complete
After two days of work, the blower was on, and the car was ready for the tune to be uploaded. We couldn't wait to hear the whine of the supercharger and feel the effects of its boost.

Ford Racing Performance Parts Tuner
The only part that doesn't come in the original packaging with FRPP's Super Pack is the tuner and self-contained tune needed to get the car running. However, it is included in the price, and you order it through the FRPP Web site using the vehicle's information. While we ran into a few kinks at first when it came time to order the tuner, we eventually got things ironed out. In the paperwork for the kit is a yellow instruction sheet detailing what you need to do to get the tuner. Before we dialed up FRPP's Web site, we made sure we had the vehicle's model, year, and VIN. Once we got on the computer, we completed the five-step process, and seven days later our tuner showed up.
