Hello, I was thinking about a vortech for my 98.5 duratec se tour. The thing is, it's an atx (and I like it this way). From what I seen around the site, most vorteched(??) tours make around 200 lb/ft torque, and I believe that's about as much as the cd4e can handle. Would a vortech be no good for my car, or would it be ok as long as I don't floor it all the time  Thanx everyone!

Vortech doesn't fit ATX cars, either does the turbo, yet...

The Vortech main SC bracket attaches to the bell housing bolts, something the ATX doesn't have.
The turbo kits were fitted to MTX cars and haven't yet been changed to fit onto an ATX car yet that I know of...

would making a custom bracket be a possibility?
the reason i ask this is, my dads a welder, and his best friends is a machinist, and someday id like to maybe get a vortec, im sure they could work something out

Yes, but remember it would be a returnless fuel application.
