ESS Centrifugal Mustang Superchargers

[Chris Barnes]

I've seen this kit in person on a 2018 GT out at the drag strip. The owners of Arizona Elite have the setup on their personal car as a test vehicle and I believe it was running low 10's at 142ish. I'm pretty sure he told me the car was making about 10 psi. Great looking kit. I did notice that the blower pulley was very small compared to my P1X so I'd venture to guess it's got a much smaller step up ratio but not sure.

I think they have a 4” pulley on Keirstins car. She’s trapped 144 here in AZ and takes it easy on the launch.

Nice looking kit. Wonder if Lund/PBD have no problem to remotely tune it.

All they need is the MAF data. Which ESS has on their site.

The biggest question for me is how quick does is come into boost. I feel like most people chase a hp number but a properly setup smaller kit matched with the high revving coyote would be an excellent match.

id love to see a dyno chart from this kit overlayed on a paxton 2200 kit for example.

2nd it blows my mind i wish more centri kits were liquid cooled like the whipple or roush kits. It would shorten the plumbing and air to water will always beat air to air for cooling.

Like this (?): http://www.siliconeintakes.com/fron...Jtx7HDMd1AxUUQ4TwUviStyaPB34nzSEaAhjmEALw_wcB

Or the Vortech Aftercooler?

No like centri blower straight into intake manifold type air to water intercooler like the whipple, edlebrock, vmp odin, ect.

That would make for short plumbing. centri to intake manifold thats it.

Also blows my mind hellion doesnt offer an intake manifold type intercooler to go with the twin turbo kit and sleeper kit.

Ive seen turbos use that type of intake intercooler but not any centris.

Imagine this and an F1X or JTB.

I'm guessing cost is the reason. Just because it usually is, whether part or all. Development, production and onto the consumer. Would be interesting if one of them could pop in and say whether it was ever considered.

They do it for the e9x m3:

Cost is a bit of an excuse when people spend 5 figures for a baller whipple kit with the extra options. Why not do a centri with an air to water. Id argue it would run cooler than a whipple type blower acting as a heat sink on top of the engine too.

Definitely worth looking into. $5800 with the upgrades impeller, complete minus injectors, awesome. This is the priceline I would expect from the A Prochargers, Vortex etc. They are very high for the cost they have in their kits.

 

[NotagainV2]

Im not even saying the air to water intakeanifold be a part of the kit. Sure it would drive up the cost.

Those A2W setups are expensive but Id sure like to see it as an available upgrade. Hellion and Whipple along with nearly everyone offers staged upgrade packages.

That exchanger looks tiny though too. Id like to see this run with a killer chiller or a ice box like many people have done with PD blowers.

Its all personal preference but I really think the centri type blower is a great match for a hugh revving coyote.

An F1X or similar with A2W and an ice tank setup would be excellent.
