I'm a new member that just got his car he's been wanting since 2002. I was wondering if you guys could suggest the best type of supercharger for my 03 that will give me the lower end punch but make it streetable, an everday driver? I've called the Sean Hyland motor sports company but have yet to hear back. I live in Canada and Hyland is only a 1/2 hours drive. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Eaton swap or a Trilogy( if you can find one). These are great on lower end.

To the best of my knowledge, there are no "off the shelf" supercharger kits you can just call up and order anymore for a Marauder. There is the eaton swap which alot of members here have done and can lead you to all the necessary steps to accomplish, it is sort of like a scavenger hunt for parts. Trilogy motorsports in Michigan no longer makes the kit they produced for the marauder. There may be a member here in Chicago with one for sale..check the for sale section under marauder parts. These two options are roots type blowers which are great for the low end response you ask for. Another option is the centrifugal type and a motorsports outfit in Florida offers such a kit for the Marauder, but there may be issues with delivery of items from what I here. (meaning not everything is sitting on a shelf waiting to be shipped, some items may need to be ordered from their supplier which might delay receiving)
Mine is not supercharged yet...but I have a centrifugal (Vortech) kit I purchased from member waiting to be installed later this year.
Sorry to bring about possible bad news, not saying that a supercharger can't be done, it just might take a little more planning is all.

If your handy and want to save $$. Eaton swap is the way to go. But you will have to source your own parts as the swap is not a kit. Which we are here to help and plenty of write ups on the Eaton swap. I spent a little over $4,000 for parts and a dyno tune for my swap. My friend and I did the install.

The Eaton swap uses the Eaton supercharger off of the 2003-04 Cobra Mustang. So the inlet and battery are switched to the other sides. :burnout:

Tranny will handle the extra power as long as you don't do forced OD to 2d downshifts (punch off the overdrive before nailing the throttle).
Bottom end will handle 450 rwhp without issues. Basic Eaton swap will net you between 415 and 430 hp, so no problems.
I love mine, strongly recommend the Eaton swap if you're considering a S/C, that, or a Trilogy, if you can find one out there.

Jerry Barnes was selling the Trilogy kits for around $6,500 plus shipping, that's a complete kit, ready to install and run.
If he's got a NIB, I'd expect the price to be between $6,500 and $7K, there aren't gonna be any more kits made, so grab this one if you're interested.

Service trans before supercharger, and add a trans cooler as it will run hotter depending on how heavy you like to drive. Cheap at 150 bucks or less. Would def recommend this. Also perhaps a trans pan with plug to make 6 month pan drains easier, which you should do thereof depending. Lastly a JMod would help but thats cheap and easy too. If you do that and take care of it it will hold up fine.
I'd talk to Hyland if he was that close to me! See what he can offer, you can have him dynotune your car as he's very close to you. Every vendor/dealer has at least one horror story...
Best thing would be is make an appt and drive over there. Roots style has high torque just off idle, but dont discount other styles either.
Good luck

Those inexpensive so-called "chips" or "performance modules" are nothing more than a 15-cent resistor that fools the PCM into thinking the incoming air is cooler than it really is.

Trans will die soon after the swap.
Why is that? Mine has over 40,000 HARD miles with 466 to the wheels, by far more than most Eaton swap/Trilogies without a single hic cup. It can go at any day and I would amazed at how long it lasted being thrashed.
Most guys seem to build to around the 400/420ish mark and also had plenty of luck. Very few have had problems. This car as a whole has had to pay for itself at least twice now. SOMETHING has to break eventually? Maybe? :)
He should just assume risks is all, not an immediate trans failure.

Nope, nada, every two years max.
Since the 4.30 install she isn't liking the heat for the first time ever however. The shifts are fierce when it warms up, so I will be finally adding a cooler soon enough. But four hot summers now? Not too shaby for only a Jmod!

05-15-2018, 07:22 PM
You'll need more than what he selling you to make it work. You'll need to get a hold of Jerry who makes the custom Eaton swap brackets they're pretty expensive and crossover tube. There's a lot more to the swap than just what's on the cobra. You'll have to move your battery from the passenger side to the driver side wire harness extensions upgrade fuel pump and then you'll need to have it tuned in member martyo could help do that at Mo's Speed Shop. I don't know how much you're paying for his kit but it might be cheaper to Source your own parts because most of those Eaton swap parts you won't need. When it's all said and done you're looking at $5,500 to 6 grand that's if you do the work yourself

The front timing cover alternator will not work on the marauder off the cobra. you have to get the Eaton swap brackets to make that Eaton supercharger work on the marauder plus the crossover tube. And you'll need the lower pulley Hub and ring that's about $300 for that. The last I knew Jerry was selling the Eaton swap brackets and crossover tube for a $1000. I don't know if they're still that price or not. I've done 4 supercharger swaps on different Marauders i have owned. do all the research before you start buying stuff or you'll regret it later.
Themarauderguy
05-16-2018, 03:45 PM
The main things you'll need is the lower intake, the intercooler, the supercharger, the supercharger elbow, the supercharger reservoir tank, the heat exchanger, 39 pound injectors, 90 mm mass air flow, the intercooler pump, if his kit has those items included in it. I'd buy it for 2300 and sell the other stuff you don't need. It's all up to you though just offer my two cents.

Jerry’s 1000$ brackets and cross over tube will make it much easier to complete, because you don’t change the timing chain cover to use the Factory pulley bridge and lower drive pulley.
Wiring is the same, for both methods, Jerry’s brackets are the answer for alternator relocation using the Marauder timing cover, for the cobra timing cover there isn’t a production type piece but it’s not impossible to fab one up. Also the coolant crossover tube Jerry makes will work on a cobra swap otherwise you do the on3 delete or fab one out of yours and the cobra one you get.

I’m not trying to sway anyone away from using Gerald’s quality made items, I’m just clearing up the facts about cobra items being used

I wish some of you would leave your feelings out of the thread.
The OP asked a serious question about SC'ing his car.
Some info posted has been wrong, big deal.
No need to get into a pissing contest.
Remember there's someone always smarter than you think you are.

I believe if you use the COBRA bridge pulley assembly, you will not have air conditioning, or you HAVE to notch the frame to make it work.
Whoop dee doo.
It isnt untruthful, some have done it.

There is this option too: http://adtr.net/product/mercury-marauder/adtr-marauder-supercharger-system/
"lower end punch but make it streetable"
It may not offer a LOT of low end punch like a PD blower, but, it's definitely streetable and just as fun.

Hard to tell based on the 60' times.
Way back when a "Cent" had the lowest 60' for years.

Nothing against you Centri guys.

Enjoying the read. After reading about the 2003 S55 proposal my imagination has been piqued.

Not to bump an old thread again, but I am in the process of doing this to a 2011 Town car. I'm weighing my options as to do the whole eaton swap and notching the frame, or using the swap brackets. Fabing a bracket is most likely out of the question for me, unless someone makes a custom bracket to move the alternator on the terminator timing cover.
But then I came across the attached picture. It is a Lincoln Town Car, and I spoke with the owner. He said that he did not notch the frame, or relocate the alternator. He did not disclose what he did. So I am curious if anyone has come across a third option. Thanks in advance.

There is a supercharger made specifically for the Marauder. It is a Vortech unit. I recommend the oil cooled version over sealed. Chris at ADTR (https://adtr.net/product/mercury-marauder/adtr-marauder-supercharger-system/) did all the work building the kit and obtaining 50 state smog certification. The same kit is available from Martin at Mo's Speed Shop (http://www.mosspeedshop.com//) (under Forums / Supporting Vendors).
That was a 6 year old post you quoted from me...6 years ago my info was accurate, adtr had not come up with the kit yet, Reinhart was on his way out and Mo's was rapidly becoming the regular shop.

looking at all the super charged cars that are now for sale and at good prices would you not be better off buying a car that's already to go

I'm an idiot for not checking the thread post date. My apology, sir.
