[QUOTE="blackbolt2003, post: 8939468, member: 88441"] I found this in an old Motor Trend article. Has anyone heard of this technology? I wonder why Ford never used it? The below text is from - [url=http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/tuners/163_0309_2004_dodge_svt_10/performance.html]2004 Dodge SVT-10 Engine, Performance & Price - Truck Trend[/url] "As consolation for relinquishing the crown, Ford SVT gets to study the Dodge PVO project to perhaps make some last-minute adjustments to its own. The SVT Lightning concept appeared at the Detroit show with numbers and specs that closely match the mega Ram's. SVT says the Lightning concept's aluminum twin-cam 32-valve 5.4-liter V-8 makes 500 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque, thanks in part to Ford's new SuperCooling technology, which uses the air-conditioner as an intercooler for the supercharger.
