I'll be modifying my 3 valve mustang and posting videos along the way with the eventual goal of a forged bottom end and more boost to hopefully achieve 700+ hp.

    Great video!! 3vs are full of nostalgia for me. I have a FBO 2008 with a KB Blower. I had it since it was brand new. Every time I drive my car, it takes me back down memory. The 4.6s are what they are and mine stands out when people see it because well taken care of 3vs are hard to find. The cheap plastic in the interior really has a special place in my heart. 😊

    I was going the same route. Originally was going Edelbrock Supercharger but a little more than I wanted to spend. I decided on the non intercooler Paxton 1200 Brenspeed Package. It’s excellent bang for the dollar, especially if your not going to build the motor. The non intercooler package is a breeze to install, did it in my driveway( No garage). Kit looks just like it came from factory. Do have to drill and tap intake for IAT sensor relocation.

    How's it going brother. Thanks for the video, not a lot of videos are out there with a POV drive and review. I've watched your video quite a few times and i feel it helps a lot. I'm really on the fence of a root style or a centrifugal (most likely Paxton). It looks like root manufacturers have been discontinuing their kits ever since i started looking 4 years ago. I love the whine, i love the ease of install. I just worry the down low torque wont be enough but I'm sure I'm just overacting because like you said, you start to feel it at 2500. Is it really worth the extra $1000-1500 (right now) for a root?

  • @michealclayton1728
    @michealclayton1728 Жыл бұрын

    I'm just curious if you've had your car dyno'd yet with the new cams, headers and blower? What type of Paxton did you install? I have a Stage 2 Kenne Bell 2.4L @ 9psi of boost in my '06 GT with Pypes LT headers and Catted X-Pipe plus Borla Atak cat-back exhaust and Comp Cam Stage 2 NSR cams. I'm making 500 rwhp / 453 rwtq on a Dynojet and super happy with my setup. I've always liked the chop on the Detroit Rocker cams - mine is more mild, but designed for forced induction and high-end power but screams like a scalded demon at WOT. You should be very proud of yourself for being able to install the cams yourself. Great Job!

Otherwise I would use a flash light to check the timing chain guides as best as you can just to make sure you don't see any broken or missing pieces.

    To be more accurate, the Brenspeed video that provides Maximum limits to a stock 3V info, the rwhp numbers range anywhere from 452 - 567 rwhp depending on your setup. Just for perspective, I'm running a Stage 2 Kenne Bell 2.4L Intercooled blower with Pypes LT headers on catted X-Pipe with Comp Cam Stage 2 NSR cams and Borla Atak cat-back exhaust. My '06 Dyno'd at 500rwhp / 453 rwtq on a Dynojet which is the target maximum torque for a stock 3V. I also have a McLeod RST twin-disc clutch with lightweight steel flywheel and converted to a 26-spline input shaft for strength, Barton short-throw shifter using a Blowfish shift bracket kit (this resolves the dreaded high-rpm shift lockout issue on 05-09 TR-3650 Mustangs), aluminum one-piece driveshaft. The recommended gear combo for my setup is 3.73's which is what I have. Get that diff checked out, 'cause you shouldn't be hearing that whining sound if the gears are adjusted correctly. Just fyi, the Pypes LT's alone added 34 hp and 29 lb ft torque to my car which to me is considerable. Great Job doing all the work yourself. Huge envy here.
