A "strap on" makes a lot more sense than an upper-end performance kit.

As in, blower. Or turbo. Turbos.

This would be fairly straightforward. You could use the OEM Diesel intercooler,etc,and possibly even an OEM turbo to keep costs down,and make replacement parts easier to come by.

A forced induction kit would be better suited for the 3V I'd think. I highly doubt a stock 4R100 would hold up to long to even 6lbs of boost. A built trans would definatly up the cost.

Keeping the 4R100 cool is the key to it's longevity. And hey, if you can't deal with a busted trans or other driveline parts, stay away - far away - from the forced induction

They hold up fine to 6psi, ive already got about 30k on my kit and the tranny runs like a champ.

If keeping it cool is the answer what is the optimal temp range 160-180?

Mike,

You had any chance to get that V10 with the PI heads up and running yet? If so how are the numbers looking. There are many of us 2001-2004 guys looking

fordmdb · #**159** (**permalink**) 08-18-2009, 08:25 AM

HI Mike
Sorry for the delay. Truck is up and running fine. I plan to get to it this Saturday is my plan.

fordmdb · #**160** (**permalink**) 08-21-2009, 08:40 PM

Wow I am a believer of PI heads

Monster-4 · #**161** (**permalink**) 08-21-2009, 09:47 PM

So 35HP with just the heads and 83HP with heads, header, tuner, CAI. Nice!

fordmdb · #**162** (**permalink**) 08-21-2009, 09:54 PM

Hey Monster
Yep... even running same tune have not changed a thing..

MikeMcCasland · #**163** (**permalink**) 08-22-2009, 03:13 AM

Again just to clarify the PI heads are found on 00-2004 2 valve V10's correct?

Monster-4 · #**164** (**permalink**) 08-22-2009, 08:32 AM

There also found on the 2V E engines that are still being produced but in the F it was from 00-04.

Pretty awsome gains with the PI. The non-PI starts falling off sooner than I thought. Gotta love the flat torque curves on both though.

You wouldn't happen to have one a throttle body spacer for the V10 you could try? I'd be interested to see if the spacer does anything good or bad.
