The 2018+ 5.0L Mustang system uses Vortech’s V-3 JT-Trim supercharger. Continued development in Vortech’s Lab resulted in the V-3 JT-Trim. The patented oil control system and state of the art centrifugal compressor stage this V-3 literally blows away the competition. Industry leading 76% adiabatic efficiency [SAE J1723 standard] means less heat is being generated, drive power is reduced and more net power is produced. Less heat also means better durability. Also, Vortech’s supercharger systems weigh less than half of the low-tech competing brands.
Superior Technology
Centrifugal superchargers easily make more pressure and flow than a roots type blower and are much more efficient. Read our Roots vs Centrifugal comparison to see the numbers.
Vortech supercharger systems are a great value. Dollar for dollar, Vortech systems deliver more horsepower than virtually any other method of upgrade. Also, driven normally, gas mileage often increases rather than decreases.
Tuner Kits, Upgrades, More HP
For higher-horsepower, custom-tuned installations we recommend a tuner kit, which does not include a fuel pump, fuel injectors or ECU programmer. This requires you or your installer to provide custom calibration and the required fuel components. The V-3 JT supercharger included with the tuner kit is capable of up to 1,000HP on modified vehicles. Tuner kits are also available with the 1,200HP V-7 JT-B, 1,200+HP V-7 YSi, or 1,400+HP V-7 YSi-B supercharger for high-performance racing vehicles. Call Vortech or your dealer for more information.
Supercharger Kit Finishes
Multiple kit finishes available. For that fully integrated look, 5.0 Mustang systems are available in factory matching black finish. Satin and Polished units are also available.
