Long term I'm looking to eventually supercharge my 2005 4.6 2v but the short term is to try and get 300-350hp N/A. My question is what mod's will I need to achieve this N/A goal (I have a list already but want to see others opinions) and what parts are swappable/compatible from the mustang 2v. I have a guy at my shop who did this to his 3v 4.6, FBO 350hp so that's where my inspo is from. He said when I go to supercharge it to look at 2v mustang parts and swap some pulleys since there's no direct fit superchargers for the triton so that's why I'm asking y'all because I'm not exactly sure what needs to be swapped to achieve this.

For more context my goal is to make an 11th gen ford lightning so I'm going for pure performance. Outside of power mods if y'all know of any great handling suspension components for these or really anything that's a nice QOL upgrade on these trucks let me know.

 

Are you a member of any of the Facebook 11th Gen 150s or 2004-2008 11 gen 150? Superchargers are discussed frequently. There's one person who made his truck look exactly like a Tonka truck. Join those groups as I'm sure there's someone that's done what you would like to do.

 

i was wondering what you have on that list as I also have a 07 4.6 that I would like to add performance too

 

You won't get that power naturally aspirated.

 

You won't get any power out of that supercharged either.


Sell it and buy a low mileage 2000's lightning, those are good bang for the buck performance trucks. They are way lighter than an 11th gen and can be made fast relatively cheap since they are already supercharged. Companies like saleen and rousch had performance 11th gens and they were never as fast as a pullied lightning.

You're upgrading an old truck and dropping money into a hole. You'd need to update the fuel system, drivetrain, brakes, etc. and by the time you're done you could have bought something faster/nicer for less cost. Plus that motor being that old can't be that healthy. If you supercharge that you'd need to rebuild that motor with forged internals to keep it reliable or it won't last long.

 

Oh yeah I'll do that thank you!

 

Oh yeah trust me I know 100% what I'm getting into. The whole point though is to put money into it over a long period of time and do the work myself. Could I buy something faster? Absolutely, but for me that's not the whole point. There's a lot of factors as to why I'm choosing to build it. Mainly just wanting to get insight on those who have wrenched on these engines/trucks in general to see what has and hasn't worked. Main issue i feel I'm going to run into is if/when I do forced induction, having a transmission and transfer case that can handle power

 

At this point idk where my list is but check on TREperformace a trickflows website
