you'll need to add to the fuel system at least a 255 lph intank and probably a t-rex wouldn't be a bad idea either. Also an adjustable fuel pressure regulator and then get yourself a dyno tune. That should about do it for ya. However I have heard about the pro-charger brackets flexing a lot. You may want to look into that before you go and buy the kit. Personally if you are adding boost I think you should go with a turbo kit cause it is way safer, more efficient, and is capable of running higher boost safely. Good luck

I wouldn't use a T-rex mine blew out it less than 1k miles. I would just use the 255 intank pump and 42lb injectors wouldn't hurt

okay From What Ive heard I need to chang my fuel pump, change to 42lb injectors how bout MAF (or is it usally included in the kit) and for some reason Ive heard I may have to change my heads to a gt-40 (or is that over kill). and get a good tune afterwards. [burnout]

Stock you're probably making 235rwhp. After the blower, you're looking at 370rwhp. There are several supercharged 4.6l owners here so I'll let them reply, but you're on the right track with upgrading the fuel system and getting a tune.

You can make some serious power with that SC, I suggest a ProM 80mm MAF calibrated for 30lbs or bigger injectors, Walbro 255lph fuel pump, and TUNE TUNE TUNE... [Big Grin]
