Supercharger kit
I'm wanting to think about, once I get the cash, adding a supercharger kit to my 04 Expy. A Lightning expedition to so to say 
. I've found these:
http://allen-superchargers.com/Expedition/03-04.html
http://www.btgmotoring.com/Merchant2...D_WPL_FORD_24V
You guys have a recommendation on a particular company/model? What else would I need to add in to make the truck run without breaking? (Like shearing a drive bolt or something :P)
I'm also going to be adding a flow master dual exhuast kit so it can breath out as well as it will be in.
Looking for inputs, thx.
BTW, it's an 04 Expedition Eddie Baur 5.4L V8.

Mark, can you give some links or info your supercharge setup? I really am not looking for super drag performance or modifying my whole vehicle, it's more a "I can, and it cool" thing :P. Where did you get your harley setup? I looked at those whipple kits, but I don't see an 04 version. Only 05-06. guess 03-04 was different

If the 04 X is a 2V then I would suggest the same thing.
You'll save some money and its very easily upgradeable!
That's what I'm running on my truck with a ton of upgrades,,,,lol.
You'll need a kit like this. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...157951334&rd=1
Then most of this kit from Mike. And a tune for you computer.

super chargers
Here are a couple other options
Kennebell
http://www.kennebell.net/supercharge...r-selector.htm
Vortech
http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com/...rd+Truck%2FSUV
Powerdyne
http://www.powerdyne.com/f150.html
Just a few other options
I'm running a Vortech V1 on my Modded 94 Gen 1 lightning 357 windsor with a mass air system. 13 to 15 lbs of boost no problem.
For the 5.4 I listed the systems in my order of preference.
hope it helps
Mike
