- This is a test drive of the Moddbox Supercharger Kit on a Ford Ranger running a low boost setup of 3.5psi.
4.0L Ranger
94' T-bird Supercharger
Magnaflow Exhaust Kit
As long as the computer is reset by ether a switch or unplugging the battery, it should re-learn with the supercharger on the engine. One thing I like about these particular vehicles is you can bolt stuff like this on and if everything is within a certain tolerance it should function normally but with more power or better mileage.
Looks like beautiful BC to me!
Best place in the world :)
im gonna have to get me one of these.
Alright, so I'm really considering this. How mug more horse power will I get out of my 2007 Ford ranger fx4 level 2 with his supercharger and how much for the whole kit including the supercharger?
Thank you for continuing to reply to comments over the years!
Question..
97 Explorer SOHC V6 4.0.... Possible? Seems like this is the kit right?
I've got an '97 Ranger OHV 4.0l with M5OD-R1 with almost 590k km and get between 21-22 mpg on the hwy running 3.73:1 axle ratio and 30x9.5R15 grabber AT2
Only thing that I wonder about is, the injectors are stock. Even at 3.5 psi, they're running at a level that I'm not sure they were ever designed for. I worry they might wear out faster because of it.
Awsome! How about for my automatic 96 ford ranger xlt 2wd 4.0 . What would that cost and would it really work?
How much HP gain would I receive by doing a 3.5psi boost on my 2010 4.0L Ranger?
Love it! Sounds like my truck but with a supercharger whine! Im trying to decide which would be better: a supercharger like that, or twin turbos. I think for the offroading Ill be doing the supercharger might handle better since it doesn't lag.
I'm sure a twin turbo setup would be great too. We designed ours with a roots supercharger to utilize the bottom end since it is really designed to be a peppy daily driver with low-end towing torque. I would also think a twin turbo setup would be much much more expensive... and if it were even available, there would be lots of piping to fit. Not a 12hr install.
Will this work for the 4.0 in the ford courier? I’m all the way from aus and I’ll be looking at picking this kit up from you guys real soon
What options do you have in finding M90 Supercharger. Does it need to be from/off a Ford (Thunderbird) specifically?
What is the liklyhood i could do this for my 2002 Ford explorer Eddie Bauer 4.0?
anyone know where I can add one in Chicago. I have a 03 ford explorer sports trac with 36k actual miles from one that sat in the garage since 03.
that's bad ass! my '09 4.ol is pretty quick on her own but i really have to hammer on the gas. also, it's an r8 axel
So true.
What woukd u put the cost on parts for this?
How many miles has it made since supercharger?
Would this work on a 95 4.0
I would you super charge a push rod?
Do you ever really get on it, in the video?
hi. I have a 06 ford explorer it have the 4.0 engine with the automatic transmission do u think it will work
Yes
+4.0 FordPower
Unfortunately it doesn't work with the 3800 buick/gm motor. Need a blower off of one of the ones listed
Here's the link for the 02 kit. The list of vehicles that you can pull a blower off of is included. We also sell them rebuilt with warranty.
modd.me/product/4-0l-sohc-v6-eaton-m90-supercharger-kit-setup-no-01/
Sweet set up, is it a 4.0 sohc motor? Thanks for the video I've been looking to swap out the 2.5 4banger and I like the power you're getting with the v-6. Btw nice video
Just checked out the link you provided and answered my question, nice price for the kit.
What app are you using?
awesome!!!!! whats your trucks differential gear ratio
sloburnful I've got the stock 4.10 gear ratio with the FX4 limited slip diff.
What's the BT adapter model for your torque app? I bought 3 different model/type and did't work on my 2007 ford ranger :(
They should all work with the torque app. The one I personally use is a basic amazon Veepeak (blue shorty style)... maybe $25.
Do you guys have one for a 3.0
Where is this truck now?
It would be a better experimental test on an interstate highway.
You should discuss difference in horsepower and fuel economy after instal. That is what is most important.
You think this would work on an older model? Say, 2000 Ford Ranger XLT 4x4 Offroad?
So with the 3.5psi boost the stock fuel system is good? The install instructions for the kit includes upgrading the fuel pump...or will it truly work OK on the stock fuel set up?
+Cliff Weidel
No fuel changes except for the pump (no MAF, no injectors, no tune required up to 3.5psi). You only need to install the fuel pump. The fuel pump is included in the kit.
Have any videos with maximum attained horse power on stock internals ?
Check our gallery page at moddbox.com
A custom tune is still required even if you are only running 3.5 psi of boost right?
+Kempton Bryan
Nope. With the fuel pump upgrade you can run up to the 3.5psi setup by just bolting it up. You can do this in 1 long day of work... I suggest breaking it up into 2 days as 2 small jobs (fuel pump/sc install)
modd.me/ltstnws/the-saturday-mechanic/
was wondering about overdrive in the automatic? sorry if i missed it. i skipped a small part.
It just doesn't shift as much... plenty of torque to stay in 5 for most hills. You'll notice the difference.
What kind of problem have you run into with this
I plan to get one of these in the near future for my 07 explorer 4.0 4x4. Are they still available? Also, does this require higher octane fuel and colder spark plugs? Thanks.
Yep. Check out our website for all the details.
Your model (all drive by wire electronic models), must be tuned at all boost levels. Kit is available and instock.
looks great, what did it do to your gas mileage when you keep your foot out off the floor
@110457217065640604505 Actually does 2.5mpg better when I keep my foot out of it. You can do like 11 mpg if you like to lay stripes :) Did 20 mpg over the coquihalla last time I clocked it. It's nice doing the entire drive in 5th too! No need to down shift.
In general, with the same driving habits +1 city/ -1 hwy
+modd me this makes me want to SC my 4.0 even more lol. I am getting around 14mpg city "stock"
Would this setup work on a 1996 ford ranger xlt 4.0 4x4? Very curious
Sorry, you got the OHV engine.
Should the timing chains be replaced before installing supercharger? Or is the timing chains ( 3 of them ) ok ?
Not required.
Modd me , do you know how this ranger is holding up? motor and transmission?
This particular Ranger was one of 6 R&D trucks. We have now sold it to a fella in Kelowna and it is still going strong (about 250k on it now and still on the 3.5psi setup). I personally drove one of the other R&D trucks with a 9.5 boost on it. Just sold that one as well to a customer, it was running 9.5psi for 6 years, towed my personal camper around every year through the mountains of BC, and had 280k on it when we sold it. Close to 500 boosted Rangers all around the world now (Dubai, New Zealand, UK, Austrailia, Canada... most in the USA :).
Update on this, will is pass California emissions with the supercharger?
It's not carb certified in California, so simple answer, NO.
In all jurisdictions tested, the kit meets the required emissions targets when kept to the stock 3.5psi setup with stock injectors, MAF, EGR etcetera (per feedback from many reporting customers). That said, it is designed for the track and is not certified for use in that state. Check your local state, provincial, or regional smog laws since they vary from one to the next (this kit ships worldwide). See disclaimers.
Nice truck I have the ohv model do they have a supercharger for that style its a 99 and I don't want to change it out
bullits motorsports llc No supercharger for the OHV right now. If you 're looking for something... I think there is a guy in the Ranger forums building an adapter plate but can't speak for the quality.
How well does 5psi hold up with an auto 4x4? Any issues with the transfer case?
We've done extensive testing on the 9.5psi setup on the 4x4 auto. We've done lots of heavy towing and various endurance tests on the Coquihalla highway. With almost 20,000kms at that setup (4x4 with auto on a 2002 explorer), we have not seen any unusual wear.
That said, the stock full-size 4-door autos have been known to have excessive heat. I would recommend installing an ATF cooler regardless of supercharging.
Another thing to note is that there are several other kits out there for this engine that boost to similar levels. They have all had success. That said, we believe a roots style supercharger is the way to go as the bottom-end is what makes driving fun. You can't beat the benefits of a roots style supercharger on the street (authors opinion).
And the transmission on 4x4 auto was fully stock with 9.5 psi? Just worried about blowing it up from the torque at WOT
Will the fuel economy improve with normal driving? Highway and city?
In general, for the untuned 3.5psi setup shown, you get about 1mpg better on highway and 1mpg less in city (normal driving conditions). However, you will likely put your foot into it a bit more which wont help it.
Note also... it actually gets 18mpg highway once tuned at the 9.5psi (this video was done to show the 3.5psi setup first and other models were boosted to the 9.5).
Was it tuned the after at 9.5 ps...?
@@jpadillap9431 We had a few other models boosted to the 9.5, including an explorer, another ranger, and a mustang. I think this model was kept to the 3.5 to see longterm wear/etc. It was sold like that after we pulled the heads to inspected it. Probably had over 100k on it at the 3.5 setup when sold.
Is it okay to have this installed and then use it for towing?
Should be altight as long as your not pulling more then you would with stock engine just to make sure your brakes and suspension can keep up other then that just watch the heat and youll be fine
...that's kinda what it was designed for. LOL. As the other poster suggested, the same stock tow limits apply as these are set based not on your vehicle's power, but the vehicle weight, suspension, etcetera.
Great video , what are my options with a 2000 xlt 4.0 v6 ford ranger ,5 speed manual .
Which engine do you have? The older OHV engine can (probably) take more boost due to a lower compression ratio, the newer SOCH engine will have more power out the box but may need more work to modify. They're both based on the same block, the OHV uses pushrods for the valves while the SOHC uses overhead cams and taller pistons to get a better compression ratio with the same bore and stroke.
I think you have the OHV, in which case, it is not compatible.
@@moddme968yes you are right thank you
where does the vacuum hose on the bypass valve get connected to? does it stay connected to the valve itself or does it need to be plumbed into the intake manifold before the charger? theres no real definitive instructions on this.
Stays connected to the valve itself, see installation manual for clarification (same as on the stock application on a 02-05 mini cooper S)
@@moddme968 some of the instructions (mustang) specify that it goes into the upper intake.
but all is figured out. used a go pro and found the valve closes while under load and not parked and revving the engine.
Will this work for a 2002 XLT 4x4 4.0 supercab?
What kind of fuel mileage hit did you take? Also I noticed on the website that the high performance injectors are offered and during the course of the installation, it should be pretty easy to replace the injectors. Do you think that I should do this as well. What about the MAF, any advantage to an upgrade there?
+Phil Houck
Hi phil.
Fuel mpg is actually better on highway. City is about -1mpg (quoting stock 3.5psi boost level). For all >3.5psi setups that have a custom tune... this will depend on the fueling that is programmed. There is a high variability in the direction people go with tuning at high boost levels so I cannot say (typically they run much richer to add safety to the tune resulting in loss of mpg on boost... but at cruise it is typically better).
As for MAF, the stock one has LOTS of capacity... thing is it is a 0-12v sensor (ford ecu reads 0-5). At boost levels >5.5psi... you should scale the signal down when re-tuning by using a scaler (like MAFia diablo sport) or upgrading to a larger MAF (or one that simply outputs lower voltages... like the 0-12V MAF off of an 03' cobra).
Injectors are require at >5.5psi levels. You can tune to the 5.5psi with the stock ones but you are high in the duty cycle... we sell direct plug in replacements from Ford Racing that work great. Anything 39lb/hr or bigger work great. the 47lb/hr is the cheapest option.
This is sick. Would be nice to get a little more power out of my 2011 sport. Like to see a trailer towing video or some wheeling. It is a work truck
Check out Ranger forums handle "mikerider". Was one of our first customers over 7 years ago. Has tonnes of crazy offroad videos posted in the back country of Washington State (not far from our neck of the woods either). Cheers.
I have a 01 ranger 4.0 4x4 5 speed manual. How much break horse power can this setup produce after tuning? But keep it reliable of course.
Check out our FAQ here: modd.me/faqs/ There is a table of the Max stock to Max supercharged for each boost level. Note that actual gains are bigger in the lower rpms than when comparing max to max. Also, the rwhp and crank hp are both listed in the table, and there are some dynos posted as well (look in the gallery section if not in the FAQ)
How did you go about geting it and installing i have a 2010 sport with 4.0 and would love to turbo it
This video is for a supercharger, not a turbo. They sell the kit on their website.
It's pretty simple... an intermediate DIY saturday mechanic can pull it off in about 12 hours. Follow this instructional here: modd.me/howtos/4-0l-v6-cologne-supercharger-kit-install/
@@moddme968 will this supercharger work on a 94 ford ranger with the 4.0 v6?
What interface are you using to connect with the torque software, is it an elm327?
Torque makes a whole kit
A cheap Veepeak blue shorty from amazon.
I would like to do this to my 08 sport trac 4.0 Just afraid there are so many sensors,the dash would be a xmas tree.. What is the cost of this?
For the 08 ST, you won't get a single code from the install. No tune required. You can run a stock tune with 91 octane and the provided fuel pump with no issues when using the low boost pulley provided. For all other higher boost setups, refer to our website (MAF, injectors, tune are required)
id love the kit for my 05 exploer. id wanna run atleast 7lbs of boost though.
We have an 06 7-passenger explorer running the 2.64" pulley. We will be posting a video in the next few weeks.
You can getaway with running 3.0 3.5 psi.The computer can compensate for that.I don’t think you could run 5 psi with the stock computer and stock injectors.
wondering why you think that about a stock computer? Injectors of course.
Ecm is fully programmable. lots make 700hp on mustangs with EEC using tweecer
What app is that ur using? And how is it wired in to truck ecm ?
The app is Torque on android and using a Bluetooth obd2 adapter
I want one
What would you suggest for an 04 Ranger Edge 3.0L V6? I ideally would like to improve mpg and overall performance but nothing crazy. Bolt on preferable.
The 3.0 can't really handle boost like the 4.0, if you're looking for small upgrades, full exhaust (headers, Y pipe, and high flow muffler or straight pipe if you want, no cat would be ideal, and keep it in that configuration, the 3.0 doesn't flow a lot so if you made it dual exhaustyoud lose exhaust velocity which hurts HP, stay with headers into a Y pipe), a cold air intake, doesn't need to be fancy, just needs to go into the wheel well so it's not sucking hot air from the engine bay. A good tune up would help also, fresh plugs, clean filters, etc.
Gears
If you want significant power then a 4.0 or 5.0 swap would be more logical than trying to squeeze HP out of the 3.0. Either that or upgrade to a half ton truck
Hope that helps
@@benjamins9121 Like I said not looking for crazy performance mods just small changes to improve overall mpg which typically also adds a little perf as a knock on effect.
@@jeffclark5206 Yeah then free flowing exhaust, cold air intake, a tune up, and if you can get it done cheaply a tune. If you've had a car tuned before the shop will be much cheaper for returns but the first time is probably gonna be expensive
what the best way to get power out of the Ford Ranger
Homemade turbo setup, running megaquirt standalone. But you have to have mechanical and tuning/electronics knowledge as per pretty much any forced induction setup your going to do urself. U less u got money, then just take it to your closest speed shop and say I want a custom turbo kit, built motor etc etc.
What kind of problem have you run into with this and what engine did this come off of with the thunder bird
3.8 V6 was the motor in the Super Coupe Thunderbird. If you keep boost low, like 3.5-5 PSI there are no problems, the stock bottom end isn't very strong so if you run 9-10 PSI it can become a problem with beating the engine up to much, plus when you start moving the boost up more the exhaust temps get higher. But at 3.5 for example it doesn't create any problems and it doesn't beat itself up or decrease reliability/durability
Also, no tune or fuel injector/ fuel pump upgrades are needed for 3.5 PSI, in my book 3.5 is ideal, it provides the largest HP per PSI improvement compared to the other higher boost pulleys, doesn't need other modifications, and doesn't affect reliability or beat the motor up.
How do i recognize what kind of Engine i have?
Wanted to buy a 99 Ford Explorer 4x4 with 207 hp listed.... Still not sure if thats an OHV or SOHC
Sohc
The SOHC came in the Explorer starting in 2002. So that means you have a 4.0 OHV, that's if you're sure you don't have a 5.0 small block, they made the same HP as the 4.0 but had more torque.
What is 0-60
Do yall make a kit for the 4.0 from 92??
Sorry, no kit for OHV
Can't wait for the torque running 9.5psi....supercharger on the way....your kit soon. MPG at high-performance+tune? Just curious...not that I expect a 70-80% efficient supercharger to do well with the parasitic loss. My '03 FX4 with fat tires and a leveling lift gives me 18mpg.
so, how many feet did you get?
@@FuskyTheHusky81 Wish I could tell you...project hit a few snags, didn't start working on it til this past Spring, and I'm afraid I've gone full-retard on it. What should have been a month or 2 for an engine refresh and upgrade has turned into a frame-off Overland build. Engine still sitting on a stand waiting its turn. Probably Spring/early Summer 2021. 100% will report back when I have numbers!
@@MrAcuta73 Haha! glad to hear that truck is getting what it deserves! keep up the good work man!
@@MrAcuta73Ever get it running?
did you have to put in a intercooler or anything
+SWAUGGA 99
we have an intercooler available and the kit is pre-setup for methanol injection. We recommend cooling at >5.0psi boost levels. Lots of people running it at the 5psi with no cooling and have excellent results.
Whats the difference between the m90 gtp supercharger and the m90 thunderbird supercharger?
I have a 2002 4.0 ranger and want to supercharge it, which one is easier to do the gtp sc or the t-burd sc
you on Vancouver Island?

Ok so is there a website you can direct me to i have a 2001 ranger and i want about a 5psi boost supercharger on it

how long does it take to properly install the complete kit
+Russell Wait
Varies depending on the installer. I'd give yourself 2 days. Could be done in 6 hours.
I'm purchasing a ford ranger tomorrow I already know its gonna be super slow :( what's the advantages of doing this compared too an LS swap? from my experiences the big 3's v6 trucks were always worse on fuel than the v8 half tons. what would the mileage be like with a supercharged 4.0? would a cammed 5.3 be better on fuel? i know my 4.8 when it was running right got 20MPGS all day
It’s way easier to keep stock engine, I think stock the 4 L gets about 15 to 22 miles per gallon if you really try. It would also be more useful if you wanted to keep the original Dash because it uses a can bus system for the gauges
@@carloslara7452 are these motors reliable long term under boost though?
Original timing chains?
Yep. It's the earlier models you need to watch for the chain guides. For earlier models, you can expect similar wear as stock, but something to watch on these earlier SOHCs. Check the Ranger forums, well documented with good instructionals on how to keep the tensioners in good health as well as how to service the chains.
Can an ohv or ohc engine be improved?
Sorry, it doesnt fit the OHV
How does the automatic trans like this power?
its a manual ranger dude....
the stock trans will take about 250-275hp reliably. i had a explorer sport with the 4.0 SOHC and a m90 on it making 5.5psi, it was rock solid until i decided to do burnouts at EVERY stop (literally)
still held up fine for that abuse for 6 months. then i nuetral dropped it while towing a silverado and sheared 1st gear right out of her.
I wouldn’t trust an automatic trans in a ranger even at stock engine
This comment an likes goes to show you how much people pay attention to a video befor comeing to opinions
How big of a pain in the rear is this transformation
What kind of MPG are you getting?
see above... +1mpg city, -1mpg highway (when driving with about the same habits... hard to do though, its peppy!)
Would this work on a 2010 ranger v6 4.0?
Yes
You don't sell this kit anymore?
Selling a few every month since Feb 2013. Ships next business day.
What program were you using to have all of the different gauges on your phone? Ive been planing to do a v8 swap for my ranger and that would.be a nice thing to add to it
liljim jkp It's torque Pro. You'll need fully working OBD II to get the sensor data.
SCAnimation what he said. :)
What app is that
"Torque" app on android/google play. Great app. Worth the $4, and eliminates most of the functionality of OBDII scanners, also logs realtime data and can has great display functionality. Use it on all our vehicles.
What year is the truck ?

do you make this kit for a 3.0L
+Micheal153
We have looked at the 3.0L and have a design but have not brought it to market due to the level of interest at this point.
+modd me well thank you for the reply. the more I've looked I think a turbo might be better for me. I also got my hands on solid work files for a intake manifold that allow to install an Eton m90.
For sure not going 88mph when you said. What’s the top end 250mph?
Is it faster then a raptor?
Not sure. Lots of Ranger enthusiasts posting videos of street racing (not condoning), but its definitely faster than the F150 with the 5.0 coyote :) At the 9.5 boost, you make more hp than the GT in the same years of manufacture.
This motor is sohc or ohv?
Looks like a post 2000 truck , overhead cam .pre 2000 v6s have pushrod motors
What @@jacobhelms6194 said. 2001/02-11 Rangers, several other models are compatible as well. Mustang/Courier(Australia)/Sport Trac/Explorer/LR3
How much did the suoercharger cost?
The kit from Moddbox is 2 thousand, although sometimes they have sales for 1700-1800ish. An Eaton M90 supercharger can be found for 350ish, maybe more for a freshly rebuilt one, so let's say 400 probably
Also they sell superchargers as well for 800-900, they are fully rebuilt and refurbished. I personally would just get the kit from them and buy a used blower for less
Sorry... deleted someone's comment when attempted replying by mistake. My bad.
@theghost LOL
Does this mean I can put it on my 97 ranger its a 4.0
If it’s the ohv no this truck is the sohc it’d require a different adapter set up
That sucks really was hoping I could I got ohv

Ford Sold us out! Us, Guys who love mini trucks... Ford: Midsize are too big and full size are to much money. Ford you jacked up the Ranger Price to sell more F150's. The outgoing 2011 Ranger only needed a 2.7 EcoBoost and a dash that acomidated an i-pad mini screen size.. Maybe I should build my own 2011 2.7 EcoBoost Ranger just to show Ford and Enthusiest that you can have power, trailer towing, and fuel economy in one tight compact truck.

What's the retail price for this kit?
Roberto Higuera Starts at $1999 usd for the installation kit. You can bolt it on and run it without modification up to 3.5psi with +50hp and greater torque gains. Has a crank hp potential of around 325 with stock engine internals (going to the 9.5 psi boost).
+Roberto Higuera if ur on a budget, some of the old buicks that have the 3800 motor came stock with an Eaton M90. U can get on at a junkyard ~$50. Its not top of the line but if u find a decent one u can save quite a bit
Can I buy this kit from you ? If so, I have a few questions. Please send a link or an email address. Ty

Why is your coolant temp on 80?
It has a 79degC thermostat
$1799 sigh. Oh well, good video though.
LOL. Really not that bad for a roots style supercharger option though you must admit. Considering the change in drive-ability, towing capabilities, and fun factor... it beats all the other options available. Thing is... the setup shown requires nothing but "bolts". No tune. After selling well over 100 kits, we've seen a few people sell their vehicles (due to life change etc etc) and they can easily re-coup most of their investment on ebay or local classifieds selling their take-off kit. These things fly off the shelf used $1500 (all our R&D take-off kits sell like same day).
just my 0.02$.
I am sure they do sell well. But I could turbo it at 4-5 psi for a lot less and no need to upgrade the ECU or Fuel Injectors. It'd also make more be more efficient and make power per boost since the turbo runs off the exhaust gases and not the engine.
@@jdmlegends3009 you say that till you start adding up the cost of all the parts
@@lowslo9287 For the supercharger, yes
@@jdmlegends3009 its cheap for a kit
bruh my stock ranger goes faster than that
3.5 psi?? -10% ur lookin at 3psi... which is like nothing..
all im saying is at least make it the standard 8... these engines are pretty well built from what i hear and the 10% makes it ~7psi... which is almost 50%
Kyle Damore I agree. But we have done lots of research and you can run only up to 3.5psi safely with a stock fuel system and stock tune. This gives buyers the ability to purchase the Moddbox kit for just $1999 and bolt on a quality salvage blower and get boosting. This is a great way to get started. The +50hp is a bit contagious though... most people go to at least the 5.5 or 8.0 pulleys as you suggest.
