Ordered the satin SC kit $3227.33 shipped including an aluminum box battery relocation kit. I should have it in about a week. Feeling buyers remourse already, thinking Wrangler all terain TA's would have been a better mod at this time... more snow.

I go through the Des Moines area occassionaly (Parents in Twin Cities & Quad Cities area) and would love to see the finished product (OH YEAH!)

Thanks guys, the envy helps. I did just want to be first, but some people have beat me to the punch, they just may not be on the boards. The one thing that will remain true, my car will not get rims, nor graphics, ground effects (maybe SVT) so it will retain it's understated look. I like having a sleeper, what can I say...

I will give SOP impressons, but dyno numbers will wait until I get the "other work"(don't ask, sectret) done to really scare the pants off of you all. Ohh, bad mental picture...

I may or may not be able to go to the SZ, but for sure I will make it to more than one CEG gathering this year to make up for not going to any in '00. Hey! I could make them a BNM tax write off! Wahoooooo. Schedule permitting, I'll be there!

I will be on the stock clutch/diff until one of them breaks. I am doing everything I can to eliminate wheel hop for now with no major work, i.e. ES MMI and my engine torque straps on (if they work with the jack shaft going across)along with ginger launches.

Expect a fully documented install with digital camera pics to be up on my site ASAP after the install which may not be soon unless we get a warm up... I want it on too guys, but I'm not willing to freeze my balls off to get it done! (hell, I already gave one left nut to get the darn thing)

Good Luck Brad,

I hope all goes smoothly with the install. Sigh, I have to wait at least two years for warranty to run out.

Will wait eagerly for your results.

Do what I did, get a job that puts on 30K miles a year. Better than my last job that allowed me to put on a Vortech onto my '96 S-10SS after 1.5 years... and I had the extended 75K on that thing!

I will do my best to keep everyone informed.

I can't wait to see the finished product either. Hopefully I will get to see it soon after it's done as I live within a few miles of Brad. Too bad that SE is going to kick my @ss in street races this summer. OH Well, it's all for fun anyways.

Do you think the ATX is up to the task, Brad?
If not, would syn. fluid, a shift kit and maybe a HD tranny fluid cooler make it marginal at least?

I knew someone who put an R-Trim Vortec on their BONE STOCK 1990 LX 5.0 AOD and smoked two trannys in 3 months....that is what makes me almost scared to buy one of these things! I kept telling the moron that if he bought the shift kid and cooler than I would install them for FREE........
he finally BURNED THE CAR and claimed it on the insurance, only to get busted a month later!! Now this guy is a car salesman at a Ford dealership in Winston Salem NC!
Buyer Beware!

MTOSVT, Muscle Motors is selling the kit for $2999 cash price, add 2% or so for using a credit card, add a battery relocation kit and tax... http://www.musclemotors.com. They have been doing a little advertising on the NECO board, same kit number for SVTs, SEs, GLs.

ikarus1, I have no idea about reliability of an auto trans with this application. I have a MTX and didn't ask the questions of Vortech. I do know, however, tranny cooler wouldn't hurt! I suggest you call Vortech and ask to speak with the head of the sport compact division.

I will be posting pics as I get them on my web site.

Brad Noon http://www.bnmotorsports.com

Forgot to mention, that price is only good through today as Vortech is upping the price after the 14th!!! Better hurry!!! Someone join me so that we can compare tuning notes...

The info wasn't on their home site, they posted it on the NECO boards... Just call and ask for the NECO price on the SC kit. Same kit for Cougar/SVT and non SVT. HTH

Is there an engine management chip included with the kit? I don't imagine the stock PCM's would be up to it, without serious remapping... and wouldn't the SVT need different chips than the regular 2.5L, because of the different cams, compression ratio, fuel injectors, etc.? I ask because you said the kit numbers are the same for all of them...

The listed figures are for the SVT... what are they for a regular 2.5L? I can't put one in mine for a long time (warranty for another 98000 miles), but it might be interesting to find a dented-up (or maybe wrecked) SE for cheap, and make a project car!

I'm willing to bet the kits are all the same with the added distinction of having to know:

Year
Model
Computer Code

Each chip will have to burn custom burned (I.E. SuperChip)

Now the question is which computers have they already mapped???

They don't have a SC style of chip. They manipulate the fuel curve using boost sensitive pressure switch and a HO fuel pump. The web site says, "includes all fuel system upgrades needed", what that means exactly I don't know. When I ordered it, they didn't ask for what year or ECU code.

Both the figures are listed on the Vortech web site. 251 HP and 212 TQ regular Duratec and 294 HP and 218 TQ SVT.
