ESS Centrifugal Mustang Superchargers

[Veteran]

holy shit that's a great price!

now, i have a few questions.... I already have the LU47 injectors because i'm running +18 intake manifold and E85... are those injectors good enough for how much boost? i was aiming for the 120mm pulley for 7.5 psi... do i need bigger injectors? what would be the guesstimated whp using the injectors with that pulley and the fuel pump that's included with the kit? I wanna keep my +18 IM if possible... and i wanna go 93 oct... its a little bit annoying not able to travel with the car sometimes due to the lack of E85 at some places

I don’t think fuel pump is included. It’s a extra charge item like injectors.

Must be a different Lund tuner, I know some that are running Lund g3 with 120mm and it’s on the edge with pump gas on a gen3 coyote. A 115 is too much I surprised they recommended that.

if it ends up being a little iffy during tuning I will just add a some boostane.

Or water methanol

Any one using a Boss mani with the set up? I kinda want to ditch the CJ and run a boss with this kit.

Meth worries me, if the pump stops and your on boost you can run into some issues

No problem running 10psi on a Gen3 with BAP, 1050s and 93 Lund tune.

My car was seeing 10-11 psi on 120mm so it would be 12-13 on 115 too much for 93.

If you don’t tune for it should b fine. I had a Few cars with meth in the past but didn’t add timing to the map. Just use it as extra octane and cooling.

Running the AEM V3 water meth on my Odin setup and like thunderclaps69 have said! mainly for cooling & Octane enhancer. It cools like a charm. However, sometimes I could see positive knock if I switched off the W/M system ( or run out ) due to shi**y gas! pulling timing would require better fueling upgrades.

 

[thunderclaps691]

The wideband o2 adjusts for fuel trims a little when the system is on. When is off you can see how much the cooling and octane were protecting from bad fuel. I had a system on an STI for 10 years without a hiccup. I even used on Ethanol mix on my BMW with great results and peace of mind.

This is what Lund told me in regards to the 115

“Also that pulley is 9.5lbs. The next step up is 11 and I feel that is just a little high for pump gas on this high compression motor unless you use additive in the tank like VP octanium or Boostane”

I think he was slightly off because the 115 is “8.5 psi” and the next step up is 110 or 9.5psi. Then it bumps to 11psi. So really his recommendation is more conservative if they are assuming 9.5psi for pump and I went with the 8.5.

like I said, we’ll see what happens. And if I have to run an additive it’s no big deal

Where are my stick shift drag racing guys at? I have some questions.

Careful...ESS psi #s are measured at 7200rpm so if your engine spins at 7400 or more rpm you will see higher psi #s.

Agreed. ESS pulleys produce 1-2 psi more than what they are rated.

Should be alright, I have a 10R80 and barely ever put it in manual mode. I’ll go scoot around in my GTI if I want to shift gears haha
