supercharged 5.4

I just got my dads expedition which is a 97 edie bauer with the 5.4 engine. it has around 90k miles on it. I have always been into performance and was wondering what kind of quarter mile and 0- 60 times this thing is capable of. I was wondering how much a supercharger would cost and how fast it would be after. I know that it will never be incredibly fast, but i was hoping for a little better performance.

Better be careful supercharging a 5.4 with that many miles on it. the internal components aren't made for all that horsepower, especially if they are worn. Look at beefing up your components, (like forged pistons, and molly rings).

Don't forget about the rest of the drivetrain. You can make 5,000 hp but it doesn't mean a thing if your tranny pukes.
