I've been working with these guys on our VMP line of blowers. Jokerz actually bought a GT500 to develop the porting program and be first to market. Having this partnership with them was a significant part of why we decided to buy a GT500 motor from the dealer and swap it into our 17 GT Track Attack car.

When VMP's 2020 GT500 comes in we'll have two engines to do development on simultaneously with different ECUs/control systems.

VMP has continued to stake our name on the TVS line of superchargers and the 2650 rotor set does not disappoint. I do have to say that the factory 2020 blower is very restrive. If I was to bring up cut-aways compared to our odin blower you would see how badly strangled the stock 2020 blower is. You can't blame Ford...they built an awesome machine and hit their power target with durability and emissions all wrapped into that. Most of Ford Performance's goals are with Whipple...not the OEM supplier. It has been up to VMP, Magnuson and Jokerz to develop the hardcore TVS technology to push power numbers higher and higher.

We ended up making 1010rwhp at ~20-21psi. Previously, the car was making 900-920rwhp, we considered our best-case stock blower dyno pull of 922rwhp when quoting gains in this video.

There were gains to be had even on the stock 92mm TB, around 40-50RWHP. We ultimately slapped on a VMP 105mm TB and made over 1000rwhp. This engine is running a stock upper pulley, 4lb (20%) lower pulley, E85, and LT headers.

The stock 92mm TB is around 10.3 sq in of area compared to VMP's 105mm at 13.4 sq in (30% larger). Most of the big monoblades are in the 15-19 sq in range. I believe these front inlet blowers do not need as large of a TB compared to rear-inlet blowers that have to slow the air down for the big ~150* turn.

The powerband to 8k is incredible with this blower + the 5.2l engine, we could probably keep spinning it.

Also worth noting...we have been using a JMS throttle max to allow us to use these analog hellcat based 92mm and 105mm TBs on a Gen2 coyote ECU. This has helped us overcome the barrier of the digital 2020 GT500 TB and test just like a new GT500 sans the MT82 trans in Track Attack. JMS Products - ThrottleMAX - JMS

Fantastic numbers. For those that are into great easy enough efficient power, this is outstanding.

Bolt ons, tune, e85 and porter blower for 1000whp is a whole new world.

So cool to live in these time.

Justin, what size are the stock 2020 GT500 injectors and do you know what the fuel pump is rated at flow-wise?

So true! So true! Seems like only yesterday we were focused on '03-'04 Cobras scratching for 500rwhp. And now we're here, talking about 1000+.

Big H.P Numbers, No shock to me! Let’s see what the stock motor trans can handle? Love the “2020”

injectors are the same as 13-14 Gt500 but the 2020 runs much higher base fuel pressure

Thanks for the lowdown Justin.

Something else, I noticed near 100psi oil pressure from the factory gauge along my 1,000 mile trip home and that's fully warmed up. Temps were between 28° and 38°. You noticing pressures that high down in Florida right now?

I think higher oil pressure helps bearing durability.

I'll let you know what the full temp spread does when we pick up a car in Wisconsin Monday and drive it home to FL!

Justin:
What lower crank pulley did you use? Was it for the 2020 GT500 or for the 5.0L Coyotes?
