2001 mustang s/c and IC

theres one in my area im lookin to get. its a 5 spd V6 i opened the engine and theres a damn supercharger and intercooler on it. the thing only had 20k miles on it. i asked him to start it up. and the supercharger was ridilously loud.. the whistle was annoying.when we took it to the shop today to have it looked at they say it could be a barring? i dunno but i do want to get it, didnt get to punch it but it felt like it had balls.

the supercharger is a procharger kit not sure if it had a warranity or not but does anyone kno what might be wrong with it? im callin procharger tomorrow and asking.

3.8's are notorious for blowing head gaskets without any notice. I wouldn't touch one.

hahah...'the supercharger whistles and it's so annoying'. nothing is wrong with it..that's what a supercharger sounds like. that's like saying 'wtf is that hissing sound the turbo is making..it's annoying'.

I agree with you here dampachi. Sounds like Car & Driver when they were complaining about the "annoying whine" of the supercharger on the '03 Cobras and that was a draw back for them.

He finds it annoying, cause he didn't get to get on it... He doesn't realise that, that noise means power.

He'll learn to love it.

Re: 2001 mustang s/c and IC

I love that supercharger idleing noise. The very light whine it has. Then when you get on it and rev the hell out of it its fricken music to my ears. To each his own.

You should put on it some stock 94-97 V6 wheels, and try to get people to race you with it. However, I wouldn't pay more than the price of a GT for it, not even that.

the 3.8 can handle a supercharger, infact they make quite a few for it, pro turbos even has a turbo kit for it, can generate over 300whp no problem

Prochargers are very loud, much louder than my Paxton, and it's pretty loud I love the sound of my blower. Guy I work with rode in my truck for the first time the other day, and the first thing he said was, "what the hell is that noise" LOL I told him it was the blower, he asked if it was like that all the time, I said yup, and I love it! He said it would drive him insane. Some people just don't understand
