Haven't heard anything about the VMP Tvs for the 2018s. All it lists on their site is to 2017. Looks like it's the same lower intake as the Roush and just a different head unit. Anybody got info on when it will come out? Also as im typing, what ever happened to Ken Bells blower for 2018s? These companies have to be losing money to those already out.

Would a 2017 2650 lot fit on a 2018?

the 2018 is on vmp website. does anybody buy kenne bell?
You mean the Roush blower you can buy anywhere? Im talking about one they talked about building awhile back with the big tb opening. Not the stock limited size one. It looks like you could put the 2018 lower on and then put the bigger 2650 gen 3 head unit on and have a nice big tb on it. Assuming it would clear the hood.

As for the Kenne Bell, some do buy them. They said they were making a 3.2 flipped over and a huge ic for the 2018. If so it could power cars into the 8s.

Btw my goal would be a low 9 to high 8 when i build one. Ive been there and done turbos and blowers and i don't want turbos and the tuning issues they bring again.

VMP doesn't have any blower kits in the pipeline for the 2018 mustang. The gen 3 2.65 TVS is currently only supported for 11-17 gt, gt500, and 03-04 cobra.

VMP would be leaving a big hole in the market if they didn't do the 18 and up cars. They are going to be a big draw for parts.

VMP will release something for the 18. They have more business sense than to not release a product for this car.

People need to stop being pansies and lower the engine and just do a VMP gen3 that way.

Hood clearance be damned.

Orrrrrrrr someone could finally offer a damn cowl hood.

I'd lower the engine a little and actually want an aftermarket hood. So im game when the time comes and if they even make one.

Hood clearance isnt the only issue. With the 18's having 4 knock sensor and the DI fuel rails and injectors , clearance for the lower intake becomes an issue as well.

Yup, I personally wouldn't expect to see a redesign on the 2018 roush blower from them anytime soon.

Yes but the 2018 Roush lower already clears that stuff. So why not put the VMP gen 3 head unit on top?
