Gen3R || Full Installation || Step by Step for 2011-2017 Mustang GT

[@aiden_j_officialmedia7133]

One of the smartest mechanics, clear and concise with his instructions. If anyone I would want him to do my blower install.

[@CoryCinciNationStudios]

Turned out great! Love that you guys did the install video on my car! It made great power on 93oct, anyone looking to supercharge their mustang VMP is your one stop shop for everything! You will get great customer service and amazing products! If you want a 700Rwhp daily driver look no further! If you want more power they got you. I’m still loving the extra 300hp!

You're not gonna like it when them oil pump gears shatter.

You probably won't respond to this but was everything in the video that was installed included in the supercharger kit and where did you buy it from

[@CoryCinciNationStudios]

@@dynastycrew824 Everything shown in this video was bought and installed @Vmp I did get some separate parts some were done at the time of the supercharger install and others were installed prior, I do have a full video on my KZbin channel called stock to 700Rwhp if you would like to see what else was done to the car!

how did it go?

[@americanpower24]

Great Install video! I bought the VMP gen2R used but this video really helped me out with my install. VMP is the way to go if you have any questions or need your supercharger tuned. Just amazing customer support!

[@philipstewart4474]

I really enjoyed watching this tutorial, well explained and very helpful camera position. Thanks 🍺

[@chrisreynolds6152]

Most detailed I have seen so far. Thank you!!! My triple pass heat exchanger from VMP did not come with a pump though...

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Hi Chris. If you purchased a standalone kit for just a heat exchanger, it would not come with a pump. If you purchased a full supercharger kit for a naturally aspirated vehicle, the pump is included as part of that supercharger kit.

[@chrisreynolds6152]

@@VMPPerformanceTV thank you. I just ordered the Bosch pump from VMP.

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

No problem! We appreciate your business and support!

[@LeemanStevens]

I might be getting myself a little confused here: on the 2014 model year specifically, what are all the places that need to be ground or cut down for clearance? Some people are saying timing cover and the block and others are saying there's no cutting/grinding involved at all.

[@sergebasque8460]

Nice video man .

[@ecbrixs403]

Is there another way to bleed the cooling system without that tool?

[@jimbrow83]

So on the 2014 Mustang gt you don't have to grind the timing cover anymore?

[@jimbrow83]

How can this be the same install engine differences and different chassis

[@juturtleju5787]

What is the part number for the accessory belt?

[@mr171009]

Could the no grind fiat be used with the AC delete bracket on 11-14s?

[@stangnutlx]

what went on that vacuum port on the rear of the supercharger?

[@halofuzion2853]

How do I add more horse power?

[@MillennialDad92]

The gen1 manifold is so much easier to remove. That actually kinda sucks how tricky removing all those pigtails is. I’d be worried about knocking dirt or something down into the intake ports. With my luck it would be one of the open valves lol

[@paulcurtsinger8346]

Do you have to use that bomber bracket! My kit I just got in today doesn’t have that in it???

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

You do not. It is an accessory that is available for those running their set up hard enough to induce issues like belt slip.

[@hpkawal]

What oil do you guys use for this supercharger? I have this sc on my 2015 ford mustang gt

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Here's a link to our video covering our supercharger oil, the appropriate fill level, and a few other notes worth having in mind when working with your VMP Gen3R. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aX-pl42XiJaLeLc

[@hpkawal]

Thanks for your reply how about the oil for the engine? currently using 5w-20 should i make the change to 5w-50 if im just street driving?@@VMPPerformanceTV

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

We go by Roush's recommendation of 5w-50 in heavy/hard use applications.

[@daweav5797]

Wish this video came out 2 years ago. I would have helped me.

[@ecbrixs403]

Hey guys I saw another person install and the my cut the boss near the idler pulley by the bracket, is that required? I’d like to know because that’ll make me backtrack a lot, I see that there’s very little clearance between the pulley and the boss, and it does touch it if I tap on the pulley, please let me know asap

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

With 6 rib it clears 99% of the time, 8 and 10 rib require minor trimming

[@Haralabos1979]

Great video man great installing, but one complaint never heard the car poorrrrr

[@stacypursell1135]

What do you do with the wires you unplugged off the back of the intake? Are they used on the supercharger?

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

The IMRC connectors will no longer be used. Secure them.

[@stacypursell1135]

@@VMPPerformanceTV Thanks. I installed the kit this past weekend. The youtube video was fantastic and I had zero issues following along using my ipad. I had a bearing failure with the provided tensioner pulley. It snapped the belt. I ordered the upgraded unit and put it on. I couldn't be happier with the power gains and the look of the supercharger.

[@billysimpson1652]

Hey thanks for the video. I'm doing a vmp gen3r .but a question. I have the bomber bracket what do you do with the ground that you took off ?

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Hey Billy! Thanks for your business. We typically relocate that ground to the first bolt on the lower intake manifold. If you'd like a picture, shoot us a DM via Instagram or Facebook and we can show you which bolt we're talking about.

[@juanordonez1345]

Hi VMP! It is necessary to cut the block? because I did not do it and it looks good

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Hi Juan, it is definitely something that needs to be checked. On this particular car, it would've come into contact if it wasn't cut.

[@michaeldevin8301]

did you end up cutting it still? is it good ?

[@Scotthamilton_345]

Is there a similar product available for the cyclone v6 3.7L

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

We do not support the 3.7L Cyclone unfortunately.

[@Scotthamilton_345]

@@VMPPerformanceTV man that sucks. No one seams to want to do anything with the v6. There's so much potential with them. I guess we'll have to go with the ProCharger or twin turbo. Wish someone could come up with a supercharger for the cyclone 3.7. Do you guys do tunes for the v6 at least

[@ShaneWelcher]

How much HP could I expect to get from a 2016 Mustang GT 5.0 Gen2 Coyote? I currently have a 2018 intake manifold with a PMAS 120mm cool air. Any thoughts on how much HP I would get if I got the VMP Gen3R?

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Hey Shane! A Gen3R kit on a Gen 2 Mustang is going to make mid to high 600s to the wheel on average with pump 93 octane fuel. Typically, the limiting factor is the fuel's octane/knock resistance at this particular level.

[@ShaneWelcher]

@@VMPPerformanceTV So basically, depending on fuel & the air quality but staying at least in the 600 HP and above. Ok. I saw the other video showing the Gen3R on dyno at 900 HP and above. They did not discuss fuel, just the introduction to the Gen3R. On the VMP track car. I thought it was a bolt on supercharger that increases by 300HP. Doesn't sound like the Gen3R will produce 300 extra HP on pump 93 octane

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

The Gen3R itself is capable of supporting 1200+ rwhp. But that is with the appropriate supporting modifications and fuel system. Most stock/stockish Gen 2 cars make middle 300s to 400whp stock and you can expect 250-300rwhp increase over stock with a Gen3R kit (that 650-700whp range depending on fuel quality of the 93). 900whp would've been with a fuel system and E85 as well as other supporting modifications.

[@ShaneWelcher]

@@VMPPerformanceTV my car has close to 500 HP with a 2018 intake manifold, PMAS 120mm intake along with the resonator removed. Plus all of the independent rear suspension mods done for proper traction. Most Gen2 Coyote motors are stock 435HP. Of course, that isn't at wheel. Meaning, the car would but 745HP at Pulley with the VMP Gen3R correct?

[@ShaneWelcher]

@@VMPPerformanceTV It's all good anyways, I can't get your sales department to email me back. It's been a week now & two separate emails. Thank you for your time though, have a great day, make sure someone on your team knows you are supportive & helpful. Also tell em to light a fire under the sales team.😆

[@FixLife119]

What an impressive kit! That looks so fun to install but it prob voids the coyote warranty if it's not installed by a professional right?

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Thank you for the kind words Adam! As for warranty, the only warranty offered in regards to our supercharger kits is a 1 year parts warranty on the kit components themselves. As for your engine/drivetrain and related parts, it'd be imperative to look into your vehicle's warranty documentation and the Magnuson-Moss Warranty act in regards to how aftermarket modifications may impact your coverage.

[@dun1776]

Why change over to 5w-50? Is that just Gen 2 only?

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

This based on the Roush heavy duty recommendations implemented with supercharged Coyotes. The heavier "hot" weight is based on the heavier/harder driving conditions and additional heat created from supercharging.

[@h3llr8z3r]

How much would the install cost ? Very awesome video

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Thanks for the kind words! There's a few variables for pricing, the best bet is to email us at [e-mail] and tell us about your car and goals. Our sales and support team can put together a quote specific to your build that'll tell you exactly what your installation will cost.

[@technicaltrades561]

suggestions on what to change internally if i were to install this on stock gen 1 coyote with about 160k miles? ive been thinking of boosting it but im worried considering the mileage

[@maximusvonce1381]

Rebuild motor with forged rods and pistons and steel oil pump and crank sprocket gears.

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Hey Jose. As for a vehicle with miles, we've found that the actual condition/health of the engine is more important than the mileage. We've had a few customers add a supercharger at higher mileage with success. Things to check would be engine compression via a compression test and completing a leak down test as well. Those will tell you the condition of the piston rings and valvetrain/valve sealing, giving you a good idea of the engine's overall health. In regards to upgrading, if you were to consider a rebuild, going with a nice set of rods, pistons, and rings with ARP hardware and a set of head studs would go incredibly far in setting you up for higher power goals. Gen 1 cars are a little weaker in the bottom end than the later versions of the Coyote engine, but can live long healthy lives with a moderate amount of boost and safe tune in stock form.

[@dorianeady8534]

Just bought my Gen3R from VMP can't wait to install it on my '14 Yote! By the way, is there no crank support needed for this?

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Our kits use the first sheave (belt routing closest to the front of the engine) and apply minimal stresses in comparison to other styles of belt drives due to the proximity of the belt to the main bearing at the end. Thank you for your business and support!
