whipple
procharger

I'm still debating about doing it. 2 things that stopped me on either, you have to use 91 or or higher and you lose flex fuel capability.

I don't know about turboing them but one of these Mustang shops or Roush can supercharge one. A Roush may even have a C.A.R.B. sticker for it. A dealer in Georgia advertises XL single cab short beds at 15k over sticker with a Roush Supercharger on it. He built 4 and sold them pretty quick. Ford is really missing the boat by not making them.

Hellion makes a twin system for the 5.0 Mustang but I don't see it on their web page. Anything is possible with enough $$.

Engine wasn't built for boost.... It'll take it, but not sure you're gonna get 200k out of it. The EcoBoost engines are built to take boost and should hold up to it. The real performance nuts who boost Coyotes are also doing sleeved blocks and forged internals. That means $$.
