Default Just bought a TVS supercharger, LT's question!

Hey,

I just bought a used TVS 2300 supercharger with few extra parts, 65mm throttle, gt500 CAI etc, my question is will Long tubes from the previous model fit the 15? Since its a totally new car I'm assuming no! So any company is offering LT for the 2015?

Im building up my parts inventory to start my build soon, aiming for a low 11's truck.

Well, since no one has even put a TVS on a 15' let alone longtubes, no one has the answer to this question. I would love to know because I have longtubes and a tvs on my 12' that I would love to be able to transfer to a new model.

I just checked ARH website and they do have LT for 2015! I'll email them and see if the LT's from the previous model will fit and im 100% sure the supercharger will fit

Well damn, I didn't know that. I just checked and the 11-14 and 15' headers are the same price and product ID, maybe they are the same!

How are you 100% sure the supercharger will fit, do you know someone that has done it already?

Update 1


Left the car with the dealer today for the 10,000km service and I complained about the following issues

1- the factory forgot to install the rear seat latch, so yes everytime I brake the rear seat falls down! Well done LOL

2- the wind noise on the highway is ridiculous, I have to slam the door hard to make sure its not leaking air!

3- the car shakes baaaaadly when you brake from high speed around 140km/hr, its almost like the car is gonna fall apart! Its even worse when the brakes are hot!


4- my screen sometimes decide to go blank! It reminded me of the ring of death on the xbox haha, the screen will be black but music still playing and u can still click the buttons on the screen, its just that you cant see anything! To solve this u have to switch the car off and on again!

The nice thing is that the workshop manager gave me a 2014 Limited fully loaded Taurus!


Anyway here we go with the update! The supercharger kit came off the old F150 today. Some pics below
