I have a 2006 2wd 5.4L V8. I am the 2nd owner of the truck. It has 140k miles, in good condition, runs great, and I service it regularly. I want to supercharge it with an Edelbrock E Force, but have had friends say it's not a good idea based on the higher miles. I spoke with a mechanic who is into racing and he said higher miles is exactly the right time to supercharge it. Any recommendations out there?What I should address on the engine before supercharging it?

Hey man I'd do the whipple plus I help on the price I just started a supercharged f150 Facebook page, we just installed my buddies with 120k miles, whipple has re done the kit from the kit on my 05 model but in stock form with whipple tune u wake around 405 rwhp and 450 plus torque but it can be ramped up quite easily

405 horsepower? That's it? Truck is 300-320hp stock?

EDIT: Nvm I didn't see rear wheel horsepower. What's it getting to the crank?

Whipple's are rated at 525hp at the crank on our trucks.

Was wanting to do this on my 06 with 100k miles on it. I'm currently ordering a rebuild kit for the transmission on it due to a bell housing seal going out. What would you recommend as far as torque converters or rebuild kits on the transmission with that much more power? Also any other engine mods required for this?

Hey man I build these transmissions, so if u message me I can give u some part numbers u can add to it so it will handle the power these are pretty strong transmissions just shoot me a message and I'll be glad to help, also visit my f150 supercharged page I can help help get u on track on the transmission plenty of the parts I use can be sourced on eBay
