First and foremost I would like to thank Jason and everyone else who helped with the install this weekend, there really are too many names to list. I appreciate the interest everyone showed in it, which made me enjoy this install even more. I can’t say enough how satisfied I am with J&J Speed Shop. From ordering the kit, to getting all of the odds and ends together, and going over the entire install, I can’t say thank you enough.

First step of the build was removing the front fender wells, radiator fan, coolant overflow, power steering reservoir, radiator shroud, and CAI. You can also see the valve cover and oil cap breathers to help eliminate some of the crank case pressure.  
 ![http://i645.photobucket.com/albums/uu171/TAJoerg31589/DSC_0213.jpg?t=1266191682](http://i645.photobucket.com/albums/uu171/TAJoerg31589/DSC_0213.jpg?t=1266191682)  
Intake manifold was removed to install the CMDPs. Swapped over to Ford Racing 60# injectors as well. You can see that the coolant hoses on the driver side have been removed.  
 ![http://i645.photobucket.com/albums/uu171/TAJoerg31589/DSC_0215.jpg?t=1266191731](http://i645.photobucket.com/albums/uu171/TAJoerg31589/DSC_0215.jpg?t=1266191731)  
This is a quick picture of one of the stock CM plate valves. The valve cover breathers will eliminate the blow by seen in the picture. The delete plates will also allow for better air flow.

Starting on the upgraded fuel sending unit. I will be using a Ford Racing GT500 dual sending unit pump. Having the access panel under the rear seats allowed for the change without dropping the tank.

The kit came with a second module and relay that was mounted in the spare tire well of the trunk.

Beginning to run the charge piping. This picture also shows the new radiator fan, new coolant overflow tank, remounted powering steering reservoir, and the coolant lines were hooked up.

Three core Procharger front mount intercooler.

The kit relocates the MAF to the outlet pipe of the intercooler.

This is the charge pipe coming from the head unit before the IC. The braided steel wire hanging down is the oil drain line for the head unit, and it was tucked away after the install was done.  
 ![http://i645.photobucket.com/albums/uu171/TAJoerg31589/DSC_0241.jpg?t=1266192379](http://i645.photobucket.com/albums/uu171/TAJoerg31589/DSC_0241.jpg?t=1266192379)

This kit utilizes a Diablosport MAFia which extends from the front mount to the factory plug. It also allows for some adjustment of the MAF.

The car is on a rough base tune for now, this is the next thing on the list to work on.

It should make a little over 450 to the wheels, depending on how aggressive we get with the tuning. The weak point in the 4.6L 3V’s are the rods, and 450 is considered the “safe” number in regards to how much power they can handle. The next step is a forged short block with full bolt ons next year.

Pretty neat how they move the maf to the intercooler. I’ve never seen that before.

That blower is like a vortech in the aspect that is shares engine oil correct?

If so you are going to want to run a thicker motor oil, the blower whips the hell out of it, and shears it badly.

I used to run rotella synthetic 5w40…

No, prochargers are self contained. The new vortech v3 is self contained as well.

JT beat me to it. Like he said, Prochargers are completely self contained, and the fact I didn’t have to tap the pan which was a major selling point over other power adders.

That is a much better system guys.

I remember tapping the oil pan of my 4.6L a few years back, that was terrible.
