I was wondering if someone could explain to me how a roots style supercharger could be installed on a basically stock 2004 mustang gt. What would need to be done in order to put one on the car and where can I look for the kits or parts to do so?
New to this site and I was just scrolling thru and saw this. I looked up the torque tech kit for 99-04 gt and it says that you will not clear the stock gt hood. So possibly having to factor in the cost of a new hood as well. Does anyone make a hood raise spacer? (If thats a thing)
Hood spacer?...No, however, they sell what's known as a "cowl hood", which is exactly what you'll be needing. They have varying levels of how high the cowl hood is. As far as what the minimum sized cowl hood you'll need, I cannot answer that. Check with the company, they will know specifics on how much clearance is needed.
LikeYou can also get drop motor mounts.
2V internals are essentially glass. Putting a ton of money into a blower setup is close setting a pile of money on fire. On a cheap motor that is likely to break anyway I'd go for a cheap power adder like a wet N2O kit, or save money for something more modable.

Cobra 03-04 would clear it. You basically need an inch at the S/C snout.
Roots on a 2V is a waste of time and money. It only makes sense on the SVT cars because it's a bolt and go.
With a stock 2V, just grab a used Vortech and add 150hp.
If your going to pull the engine and change out the crank, rods and pistons. Might as well just turbo it... or even Coyote swap, $2k gets you a 400hp F150 5.0 and those can take 600hp.

Coyote swap would be the way to go, but that isnt by no means a cheap or easy swap either!
