ok i have a 97 f-150 that lifted nine inches with big tires it is made for mud! so im going to rebuild the motor in it and add domed heads and bigger cams and want more for a good programmer to work with so i want either two small turbo chargers or a super charger? which one would work better for a mudder? all help is appreciated

supercharger cause a turbo has to spool up a supercharger doesn't the power is there once you hit the gas enough said in my opinion

Supercharger. Means there is less heat. And a high end supercharger is way cheaper than a twin turbo custom build. Plus its more reliable and more power. that's actually what I'm doing. Got my motor rebuilt with domed pistons and heads from trivk flow. Use the twisted wedge 185 series heads on ur 4.6-5.4l any other questions just PM me.

alright thanks for the help guys i think ill go super charger

Wise choice. Its a better deal in the long run. Plus you don't HAVE to run an intercooler

I have a 2000 5.4 4x4 I want to supercharge it, and put a 5 speed manual tranny in it. What do you think? What all are you planning to do?

Do a inter-cooled procharger system with the air-water-air set up only runs like 140F and has a 65% HP increase

Its cheaper and easier to gind a salvage ford lightening and pull the motor tranny and ecm. Trust me I speak from experience cause I've tried both.

I've considered that, I just really want a manual tranny. Other than that I wad kinda planning on doing that.

alright here is the thing i am going to do a complete top end rebuild putting in domed pistons and heads with bigger cams and a super charger and if i can find one im gonna put a automatic six speed tranny attached to it and reading what you guys said about intercoolers i think i might add one of those too just for the extra ponies
