Process was pretty easy really, Brevin at ESS was very easy to deal with, as stated, by the time the whole process is done, it'll cost you between 13 and 14 grand , havent installed yet but wengerd reckons ill get between 700 to 750 rear wheel horsepower on 98.
Our American friends have plenty...
FYI, Got the supercharger(refurb unit for $4995 US), quoted $2200 for IM240, brake & noise tests, for compliance.
Will use wengerd in the US to tune it, apparentlty hes the man.
All up should be around $13500 for 650-700 RWHP.
Not 100% sure what its called, a VSCCS certificate? , just need the plate on the car that says its a road legal mod.
Got this back from one of the certifiers See below.
Thinking Very seriously of installing a ESS G3 Centri Supercharger, the yanks seem to love them, & I reckon i could do the...
I must admit, i find it strange that not one member of this forum has fitted their own supercharger & therefore had experience with ADR compliance.
Surely someone out there has?
Hi all,
Wondering if any of the Aussies on the forum are running an Ess, paxton or procharger centrifugal supercharger or really any type of aftermarket supercharger, more wondering how did you go with ADR compliance & who did you use I'm in the Riverina NSW & had 2 local quotes a G apart...
These bolts were an absolute C--- to get out.
- I used a 5lb(2kg) hammer, peice of pipe & a 10kg steel weight behind the bolt to take the shock in situ.
- Heat
-A 21 yr old body builder to swing the hammer, F--- they took some moving, Id say 20 big hits each.
-There was no sign of corrosion...
Would love to know the hack Bris.
Tried holding the trac cont button up thing, but that didnt seem to work, my other car is a hot little LJ, so a convert here as well.
Anyhoo.
Spoke to a tuner from penrith who is pretty handy on hemis, but also a big fan of the coyote.
Re tune only on 98, with...
Just Looking at a Lund 93 octane tune on youtube, with jlt CAI & x pipe.
Wheel Dyno 439hp/409ftlb(327kw/554nm).
Seems pretty good, car is an Auto as well, could be some more in the tune for a manual??
Thought I read that one of the Aussie members had a lund tune the other day.
Still amazes me that theres no feedback from anyone about the Tickford tune good or bad, its as if anyone whoever got it, signed a non disclosure statement to never say anything about it??
Surely you can get in strife for your personal opinion on something?
Anyone?
Dont really want to go down...
Sent this to the fellas in perth 1.5 weeks ago after having an awkward talk on the phone.
Guess what, no reply!!!!
Hi Brett/Mitch,
Thanks for your time on the phone today.
Looking at the 400kw 98 octane FN Mustang Manual tune.
Wondering what approx real rolling Dyno numbers you are...
They are still claiming 400kw from above link.(see below)
Why still mention 400kw on your webpage when even 15% on 339 is 389kw(at the flywheel), not 400!
What other options do we have for a CAI & tune, any reccomendations.
Remote would be good as Im 400km from most capital citys & time poor...
Seems like BS, but still available through their tuning centres, head office is in Perth now.

Be interesting to hear from anyone that has the tune & their thoughts.
Hi All,
New FN Mustang GT manual convert here, nearly got one in 2018 & finally got one & love it.
I would like a bit more go, but keep it NA.
Bang for buck the tickford 400kw tune almosts seems a no brainer.
Thing is you cant find any reviews, Dyno runs, even a simple before and after...
