Do better math man! I have a 4.6 4 valve in my 2008 mustang with a roush supercharger and I have dyno tested it at 8psi and hit 470 at tires! Just installed smaller pully and running 14-15 psi and should be 550 hp or more! Won't know till on a dyno

I was just giving him a rough estimate and it'll be less on a truck because of larger tires but mustang sounds pretty nasty

Actually my truck has the same set up but a 5.4 3v and only running 6 psi! Here is a picture of the trucks engine! And a muddy picture to show its not a show truck and is used for a real truck! The mud was from Dog Party II 2012 at twisted trails off road part in copemish, Michigan

I dont know im in the air lol... 4v doesnt make torque like a 2v unless you slap a positive displacement blower on it... Gt500 swap would be interestin but very $$$ maye just throw some cams in it with long tubes and full exhaust itll be the 4.6 that surprises... There isnt any real supercharger options for my current motor

Always resort to a turbo! They can be a lot of fun if done up properly! There is a supercharger out there for it just have to look! Paxton is what you need to look for
