Power difference between VMP gen 2 vs lth with mid and E85 tune?

[SSG 5.0]

Get those tires and brakes handled first before you get someone killed lol 235's with a VMP and the base brakes that come on the Mustang will create a monster that I would not want to be driving.

Lol. Not the first time I’m driving a car. I’m not trying to max the car although I’ll get a moderate or mild set up with the vmp to start with. I’m tracking getting wider tires now or maybe I’ll have no choice and go ahead and buy a 9.5” or 10.5” rims.

I'm kind on new to the S550's but I plan trying the MT SS 265/45/18's on my stock rims. The car (18' GT A10) came with the same 235/50/18 you are talking about, it was someone bearable stock but now on the E85 tune they are just spinning all the time.

That sucks dude. Maybe we’re both buying a wider rims. The 18’s just look silly on this car to begin with. When I got the sct x4 and race intakes installed on my 12 5.0, the car was spinning like crazy too. Maybe a combination of older tires and aftermarket parts. I wound up installing bmr lca, panhard bar, and lowering springs. That did the job.

I’m looking into the M/T SS in a 305/35r19 because I hear good things about them.

On another note, I wouldn’t bother with the Roush. You’ll end up needing a VMP tune anyway, and theirs has the integrated elbow for better flow. Start out with them, and you can’t go wrong. I’m not sure about the street manners of a mono, and I’ve always heard they don’t behave well for a daily driver. Maybe @Boduk0220 could offer some more insight on that. I’m curious to know more, but the VMP twin 67mm or twin 69mm have nice manners. I’m on a Whipple twin 68mm because my kit came with a twin 60mm and the twin 69mm wasn’t out.

I’ll get what they give and work from there. What size is that rim? I know it’s 19 but..

 

[ckendri]

It’s a 19X11 rim.

Yes, a 315 can go on an 11” rim.

I have a 19x11 wheel and have 325/30s on the back. Looks amazing and does well. For FI i would do Toyo R888R.

American muscle doesn’t even sell those tires but latemodelrestoration does. Only
Cooper and Nitto though.

What’s the cheapest and reliable supercharger route anyways?

 

[SSG 5.0]

Procharger P-1SC pretty good? I got quoted for $6,702 install and dyno along with the kit. I’m verifying if the kit comes with bap, intercooler, and injectors. Thanks y’all.

Guys are killing it with that setup, and the price sounds like a steal. I like my VMP though. It’s a brute.
