Marauder Supercharger

[thebeeper]

Hey folks :
I am finally getting the supercharger for my 2004 Marauder .
I chose the complete kit from Dennis Reinhart Performance ( Florida ) . He makes up the kit complete , and uses a Vortech PAXTON Novi 1500 unit .
It should be installed by mid Feburary . I'll let you all know how I make out .
So far , I have had a great experience with Dennis Reinhart . He has been VERY helpful . I'll let you know if that experience continues for sure . I'll tell it like it is , will not hold back .
Everyone SPEED SAFELY !

not sure what type of blower your talking about but if i was to do it with a novi or vortech i would just buy the head unit and fab the pipes yourself and save yourself 2 grand

imho...

Bad idea!

[MOTOWN]

prolly not a good idea unless its a kit that has already been adapted to a marauder ie eaton swap kit, trillogy(good luck), or a centri kit.

Hi again folks:
To answer a couple of questions that came about from my first posting ........
I am located in Boulder City Nevada .
I was going to have the Ford Performance shop at the las Vegas Speedway do the install for me ( they are located at the Ford Shelby Mustang Museum ) , but the fella ( manager ) I talked to there got to be a real pain . I got his hourly cost for the install , a little high for me , so I told him I wanted him to do the dyno for me but not the install . Seems after he made a couple of phone calls for me to get info on the install from the manufacturer , and telling him I could not afford his install rate , he told me if I came in for a dyno , he would charge me $125.00 extra for the dyno just because I would not have him do the install . Kind of sounds to me like he has a pompus attitude . But thats just me . I would never use him for ANY type of work now , and have already spread the word thru the Mustang clubs here in Vegas about him . Hope he has enough work . Sorry about the "soap box rant" .
Back to my install ..............I am having a local well known custom speed shop here in Boulder City do the install ( I am not able to do the install because of health reasons ) . Dennis Reinhart from Florida supplies a COMPLETE kit , all the pipes , hoses , brackets , intercooler , new fan and shroud , new gauges , pump , plugs , injectors , Vortech / Paxton Centrifugal Novi 1500 SC , etc. etc. .
Estimated install time is approx. 12 to 14 hours . This should be done in mid Feburary .
Any questions about kit , email me direct at THEBEEPER@COX.NET .

Make sure to give the install shop Dennis' phone number in case he has any questions about the install.

YES , Dennis gave me his shop number and cell number . The person who is doing the install has talked to Dennis a number of times already . Dennis seems very personable , and more than willing to help with any type of questions .

[thebeeper]

No other MODS right now . I would like to know the best way to beef up the trans just a bit . I do not plan on racing the car , just wanted to have a little firmer shifting .
Anybody ??????????

I really wished you read this thread before sending it out to be installed by a stranger. I'm now making about 500+ to the wheels on a stock engine.
