Charger

[Jrt]

Which is safest? I have a 2015 5.0 already a few small mods but was thinking about a top mount charger that is safe and produces good power without self destucting the engine ....any help would be much appreciated and I'm sure this topic is on her somewhere and also any good tuners near houston tx?

You really can't go wrong with a VMP or Whipple. Even a Paxton/Vortech is fine, but lacks the torque.

2015+ coyote has a 11.0 compression ratio. As long as you stay in a sensiable power and PSI range you will be fine. 10 psi and about 650whp should keep the motor alive for a while as long as you dont beat the hell out of it every single day.

VMP is a tuner/supercharger company started and ran by Justin Starkey. Not sure exactly on the specifics but I know they make a damn good supercharger kit. Pretty popular on here. But as stated before, you cant go wrong with the VMP, whipple, or paxton/vortech. It just depends on what you want. VMP will have torque way down low, paxton/vortech function more like a turbo, and the whipple is similar to the VMP but has a higher ceiling as it is a larger displacement charger (2.9 normally compared to VMP 2.3)

I was thinking roush stage 2 or whipple...i already habe exhaust and long tubes so I'm sure the tuner that comes with the kit won't work as for my 02 sensors are deleted and has hp tuners so I guess if have to find a good tuner/ dyno....any recommendations in Houston area

If you are considering the roush then go with VMP, its the roush version but better and it comes with tuning. I'm not sure if they support HP tuners but they might. Give them a call and they'll give you better info than I can. If you are in houston, then you should be able to ask around and find a good speed shop. Theyre all over out in Dallas.

S550s have gone 11.8s with E85 tune and drag radials only.

OP, Livernois has the cheapest PD blower available. Its a maggie 2.3 unit thats front fed like the whipple.

Safety is really in your tuner's hands. If you get a nice safe tune and run the correct octane for your tune consistently, there is no reason that you should have a problem with the engine. The S550 has quite the stout motor. You can run meth injection or switch to E85 and that will help. Just make sure you tell your tuner you want an ultra safe tune. He will most likely do a hero run on the dyno for you and print that out, then dial you back a few degrees of timing for it to be safe on the street.

Just got my car finished yesterday. Kooks 1 3/4 off road headers and a VMP stage 2 with 85mm pulley. Havent had a chance to measure boost yet but she sure as hell pulls harder than anything I've ever driven. Probably putting down between 550-600rwhp
