Glad your putting out dope content with your builds, and a combination of footage is cool to but you can’t beat chronological order with builds it makes it easier to follow in my opinion lol. But however you decide to upload your content it’s greatly appreciated my guy.
Thanks for posting Crown Vic content, I've got two P71's and a really nice civilian version. These cars are tough as nails and deserve some mods to make them more sporty. I'll be watching all your videos, thx
Combo is good but make sure each is a series. Whole build log would be cool too, I'm mostly interested in the 5 speed swap but supercharger is nice too, I want both now
I love it! I love the color too burgundy is something I never really see. I bought a SUPER CLEAN 2011 P7-B with 90 thousand miles, has both spotlights, push bar and some flashing lights/siren, etc. she is going to ADTR for airbags and a Pro charger.
If I remember correctly, I think you explained the difference between m90 m112 m122 superchargers in the video. I subscribed for that video. Where os that video?
Videos will be re released. M90 is 90 cubic inches displacement per rev. And was available on many applications. Most popularly the GM 3.8L L67 and L32 V6. As well as ford thunderbird supercoupes. Cheapest of the three. M112 is 112 cubic inches per rev. Should have been on the supercharged 4.6L ford DOHC motors. Much more expensive. I haven’t seen any for less than $500 used M122 should be the 5.4L lightning series F150 trucks. 122 cubic inches per rev. Much more expensive. I’ve seen even the lower intake manifolds selling for $800. Depends on your engine displacement. And desired boost levels. I’ve proven 7psi is achievable on a 4.6L V8 using a $45 junkyard 20 year old supercharger.
You've got one of the best crown vic builds I've seen so far, just about everything im in too.Ive recently purchased a 96 Merc and plan to do some similar upgrades but have barely gotten started just to many damn projects and not enough cash lol
Thanks I will be posting a lot more on the car. The supercharger was $45. The intake manifold was $30 used from eBay. Plus a $50 aluminum flat plate. It can be done somewhat cheaply :)
I also will be adding the push bar to mine. I will also be adding a 5 speed but it will be a TKX 5 speed. And I will Ls3 swapping mine. I found a Ls3 block for $500 so it will be a Ls swap.
It's gonna cost you alot of money all in. Everyone gets caught up in the whole cheap ls thing and most times end up spending alot more than they let on anyways.
I spent $30 on my intake manifold from eBay delivered $45 on the supercharger from the junkyard. Yes you must pay to play. But this is how street rodding is done these days.
I was about ready to start saving for a standalone ECU setup. Didn't know you could buy Advantage Pro III and tune it yourself, like I'd have to do with a $1200 standalone setup anyways. Great stuff as always.
Doing standalone is an option. I did not consider it because I am not aware of any OBD2 compliant aftermarket systems. Where I live, I must comply to emissions requirements and they physically plug into the OBD port during annual inspections. For this reason I kept the factory ECU. The tuning software runs roughly $350. Plus you’ll need a Flash Programmer pass through device like a X4. Which sell for around $450. Standalone would require a new or modified harness. Just some thoughts.
@@bpbuilds Ah. In new hampshire anything over 20 years old doesn't need emissions. Next year I won't have to worry. Good point though, having OBD2 would be nice instead of carrying a laptop everywhere I go.
@@bpbuilds I did some research on the SCT software and heard the licensing and customer support is a major pain in the ass and not very customer-friendly. What's your experience with it?
@@jesse.vr6 For SCT. You pay for a single copy of the license for personal use. Then they mail you a USB dongle with your personal license key code. The software itself is a free download. But you can not run the software without the USB dongle key. Only issue had was getting everything activated. Their support was responsive and met my needs. I had to call them because my antivirus was preventing it from installing fully onto my computer. The software itself is “clunky”. You definitely need to understand what it is you’re trying to do. And what to modify. It’s not very user friendly. But it’s all there. Picture early windows XP interface. It’s just a list of expandable menu options with many parameters. You basically are given full access to the entire stock tune. And you modify what you need to modify. The challenge seems to be that this is an automatic trans computer. You are trying to operate with a manual transmission. So there are some key parameters to adjust so that it will work I plan on making a tuning series
@@bpbuilds Doesn't sound too bad. Apparently you can only tune one car, but for $450 that's not TOO bad of a deal... I guess. A tuning series would be super helpful.
My calculations would estimate an additional 75-100 horse above stock. I have not had the car on a dyno. However I am running 7psi boost and 1.37 volumetric efficiency. Atmospheric air is at 14.7 psi at sea level. So if you can boost an additional 14.7 psi. Theoretically your power would double. I am boosting roughly half above that. So approximately a 50% improvement from stock is estimated. However intake temps are a concern. So the computer pulls Timing to protect itself. Plus I have not optimized air flow with cams. Heads. Or exhaust. My plan is to take the car to the drag strip and establish a solid time to compare with my pre supercharger times. This would further prove the theory. The goal was 5 psi with this build. I am more than happy with 7. With a $45 supercharger from the you pull it junkyard.
@@bpbuildsdude I must say. You are an inspiration to me. I’m literally going to do my best to copy/imitate + throwing my own flare into it together my Vic to this point. Very appreciative of how detailed you are. Plz keep the videos coming 🔥🔥🔥
@@vittoriovuocolo2438 depends how far you press the pedal. If you stay out of the boost. No change at all. I average 260 miles per fill up.

I have the AC Delco P/N in the supercharger build series. I’ll be posting that soon. Look up a 2002 Express 1500 with the 4.3 V6. I’m seeing it on advance auto website. Note that it did require slight modification. I had to increase the center hole diameter. And remove a piloting lip. I used a Bridgeport mill.
Im looking at doing the exactt same thing, only without the air meth system and with a stack plate incooler made from an oil cooler. Would you recommend the air meth system over air to water? And did you upgrade the internals or fuel system at all? Last question, how close is the hood to hitting the supercharger, i want to know if i will have enough room with the intercooler. Thanks and awesome build.
Hood clearance was the issue. No vertical room fit an intercooler. Engine internals are stock. Fuel pump and injectors weee upgraded Have patience. All your questions will be answered as videos are released :)
Yes. A ford lightning F150 intake air temp sensor will also work . This was factory supercharged. And a 2010 factory supercharged mustang sensor will also work. I wanted a fast responding sensor.

A t45 will work. Based off my research. I have never had my hands on one. Or tried it though. From what I understand the T45 is a little shorter. And requires about a 5/8” thick drive shaft spacer. Installed between the rear end pinion flange and rear of the driveshaft. If you have access to a lathe. This is an easy part to make. But I believe some companies sell them. This also means longer bolts (Qty 4) holding the driveshaft to the rear end.
I want to do the 5 speed swap on my 2011 CVPI. I need to buy the pedals from ADTR if they ever get them again or build them. My biggest problem is where to do it, live in a condo and the vic wont fit in my garage. So maybe find someone to pay to do the swap.
If you need help with pedals let me know. I performed the entire swap in my driveway. Outside. Using 2 floor jacks. 2 jack stands. And 2 wooden ramps. I do have a garage that I used for storing parts. But depending on your condo you might be able to do it in the parking lot. Or rent a storage cubicle for a month or something.

@@bpbuilds yes info on building the pedals would be awesome. Having the pedal assembly is really my biggest sticking point. I can get all the other parts including the T3650.

With the .62 ratio 5th gear on the TR 3650. VS the .70 ratio on the automatic. If you do not change axle ratio, This means lower RPMs on the highway.
