Super Charging the FX?
 
Is it worth super charging my 04 fx4. 5.4L V8. I want speed.

That's a big heavy truck for speed. But go for it!! I would do it, if I had the $$$$$. and you will need alot.

What do you want out of it??

These FX4's are real heavy for starters and I do not know how well a supercharger would tolerate 4x4 action if you do any.

hey man. I am looking at charging my king ranch when I purchase it soon. I know I know I have been saying that for months now but soon guys I will be a F150 owner again. Anyways, talk to the guys at troyer performance. They specialize in our trucks and already have a package put together with the rousch supercharger.

I've never understood this. To me it's like the kids who spend a ton on hopping up their Hondas to still go slower than a stock Mustang. If you really want to go fast, why not find a Mustang and build it up, and keep the truck. Use the truck as a tow vehicle and have the best of both worlds.

Yea...
 
I guess it's more of a split between this reason; I am a truck owner because I do not want to be a car owner. Yea it's money that's for sure. A super charger would obviously be a crazy amount of money, but man, think of the conversations at the pump. lol.

do some research...you sound like some 17 year old kid who knows next to nothing about what your planning on doing

blackbetty 11-29-2008 04:52 PM

way to pm this to me...


Actually I'm a 23 year old police officer. You sound like someone who is to stupid to click on ones profile and do, "research" before making assumptions. Nice post though, you really made yourself stand out amongst the crowd. As a matter of fact, don't bother replying, because it will be rapidly deleted, and laughed at.
if you make yourself sound like some honda kid looking for 800 horses when you only have 95 then your going to get flamed...the proper way to find out the answer would of been to use the search button and "research" and when you have questions not found by the search button, ask, and maybe even a where should i start reading about s/c my fx post wouldnt of been flamed....

im a pretty helpful member and have a pretty good knowelge background that im willing to share but stupid is as stupid does and stupid post get on my nerves

go for it!!!

my brother has a 08 f-250 6.4 that is far from stock, curbs the scales at 10,014 lbs and its faster than his 06 mustang gt with headers and exhaust, if you got the money go for it!!

blackbetty 11-29-2008 08:52 PM

btw i dont want to seem like a dick...

if you want to up the power then go for it....just learn what you can and all and make the right decisions the first time and not have to do things over and over
