ESS G3 Supercharger Kit Overview- S550 Mustang Gt

[@BaD.Garage]

Running a G3 kit as well, basically the exact same setup on my 21 5.0. Couple questions for you bro -Are you running E85? -Does your BOV stay slightly open? If so how much throttle do you have to apply before it closes and starts to build boost? Mine only shuts when I’m 100% WOT other than that it never even moves, wondering if that’s normal or an issue. Seems like you’d get a lot of boost lag that way -how much power is it pushing rn? Idk if there’s an issue with my tune or kit but the car doesn’t feel like it’s much faster than stock 🥲 thanks for the help and sorry the comments so long!

[@evans550]

no problem man. i’m on 93 right now. my bov makes noise when i let off throttle like it should. around 3-4k rpm is when you start to hear it since that’s when boost starts. Lund says low 600 whp

So, after you instal the kit. What steps are needed if any for drivability? Do you have to get a chip/tune or are you good to go? Thanks for your time.

[@evans550]

yes i would recommend emailing lund racing, they are the go to for tuning.

[@DGunter]

Did you need to order new injectors to replace the stock ones? How about the fuel pump?

[@evans550]

FIC1000 Injectors Vortech BAP Stock Fuel Pump

[@mattjones1378]

Is that the UPR duel inlet catch can for centrifugal superchargers? And if it is, where did you connect the hoses?

[@evans550]

it can be for any aspiration. the hoses connect to both, driver and passenger side valve covers. you have to plug the one line on your intake manifold.

[@JL-sw3qp]

Thanks for the video! What is involved in changing/servicing the air filter after everything is put back together? Did you replace the oil pump gears and crank sprocket? Do you have a stock exhaust? Thanks!

[@evans550]

Will have to move the driver side inner fender out of the way. The air filter is reachable from that point. I didn’t do my OPG and crank sprocket. I’m not smacking it off of limiter so it’s not needed. HP doesn’t relate to OPG failure. Full exhaust. Longtube Header, free flowing exhaust.

[@eo7007]

Great overview! Can you also do a video on how to do pulley changes?

[@evans550]

Thank you! Great idea i’ll do a video on that, next.

@@1997swagger1 i went g2 cause its cheaper and i knew i was never gonna make over 800whp and the g2 can make 800 or 850 i think, so yeah i said g2 it is ill be fine with 700 wheel

Where does the blow off line connect too Ii have 2016 with 2018 intake with Irmc

[@evans550]

It’s in the video. I used the left side intake port.

[@eugenetan4156]

does the Kit comes with all the install instructions? like plug and play? Did you dyno tune it or handheld tune? after. ps- im typing the comment while listening to your video lol, my bad if i ask something you already mentioned.

[@evans550]

Yes the kit comes with very detailed instructions. Mine was sent with a usb hard drive I plugged into my laptop I purchased a tune from Lund Racing. It’s remote/data log tuning.

[@Lunatikgixxer]

Did you do OPGs?

[@evans550]

no i did not

[@Lunatikgixxer]

@@evans550 running 800+ may be dangerous. YOLO. Run it till she blows. Im curious on how much hp you can push and before she blows up. My mind set is probably like yours though. You arent racing the car, mostly weekend driving it. Maybe do a few car meets or shows and cruise the rest with a few WOT pulls here and there maybe a race or two. If thats the case I couldnt see why the OPGs wouldnt hold up.

[@evans550]

@@Lunatikgixxer OPGS fail do to bouncing off of rev limiter. not power level or rpm

[@Lunatikgixxer]

So if i set my cars limited to 4k and hold the pedal down for 30 seconds and then do the same set to 8k it will be the same result? It has everything to do with power and RPM. HighRPM=HighHP HighHP=HighRPM.

[@evans550]

@@Lunatikgixxer if you smack limiter no matter what rpm it is bad for the car. like 2 step for instance. if you are drag racing and smacking it to launch. Either or is bad for it. I wish there was a video for you to see what a 2 step or smacking off the rev limiter looks like on your engine. Higher hp and higher rpm isn’t straining the OPGS like a rev limiter does.

Do you have to remove the bumper to clean the cold air kit on the ess. I noticed it's tucked in and not accessible like the vortech kit. Thanks 🇺🇸

no. should be ok to remove part of the inner fender
