2002_Ford Mustang GT Upgrades Kenne Bell Twin Screw Supercharger Kit
Kenne Bell 6 psi vs. Kenne Bell 9 psi
Here is where things really started to get serious. Equipped with the 9-psi intercooled Kenne Bell kit, the 4.6 thumped out an even 400 hp and a whopping 427 lb-ft of torque. The intercooler dropped the inlet charge temperature to a peak of just 130 degrees. Low-charge temperatures minimize the chance of detonation, an important fact given the higher static compression ratio of the GT motor compared to the low-compression '03 Cobra. Combine the chilling effects of the intercooler with a more efficient twin-screw supercharger and endless hours of fine tuning the air/fuel and timing curves, and you have the makings of one seriously powerful (but safe) supercharged GT motor. With gains as high as 150 hp and a like amount of torque, you'll be able to feel the effects of the intercooled boost as soon as you stop on the gas, just be aware that traction will now be in seriously short supply.
