Can't Find Supercharger Kits For my 2003 5.4 V8
 
I have been searching online for a few days now and I can't find a supercharger kit made specifically for 2003 5.4 V8 f150 supercrew. Can I assume that the 2002 kits will fit on the 2003? Am I supose to use conversion kits to make other model fit my truck?

99-03(04 heritage) 5.4l v8 should all fit.. shouldnt matter on being a supercrew or an extended cab or regular cab. maybe even 97-98 5.4l may work but im not sure...

im not trying to flame on you or anything but u may want to do some extensive research on this because at this point i hate to say it but asking this question kinda shows u arent very sure of whats involved with forced induction even if it is a kit....

good luck getting supercharged!

I'm not so sure all 5.4, 99-03 are the same. The 4.6 isn't, atleast with a Procharger anyway. If you call around to some of the dealers they can tell you straight up.

I'm looking to Procharge my 98 5.4L 4x4 soon!! At the procharger site, the kit they offer for the 5.4L is for years 97- 2003. Check out the site, you can get a good understanding on forced induction systems and also - check out the media section and the procharger vids..

procharger .com (trucks/suv)

GoodLuck

I Procharged my 01 SCAB, 5.4L, 4x4. The same kit will fit the 03's whether it's a 4x4, screw, or reg. cab. The P1-SC is a great compressor for these trucks. It sounds awesome and it looks nice under the hood. Once you're over 3000 rpm, you'll really feel the boost. Check out my gallerie, I think you'll like it. :thumbsup:

Lightning swap is the BEST way to go with the 5.4 unless your going to go Whipple!

meaning you already have a 5.4l and put the svt stuff on it? OR are you saying replace any f150 drivetrain withi the entire svt lightning drivetrain?

to add the svt setup to an existing 5.4l isnt THAT hard.. but to have something like a 4.2l or 4.6l and then swap to the full svt 5.4l supercharged lightning drivetrain is a pain in the ass.... unless you have absolutely everything needed...

lighting swap
 
the lighting is a great way to go,i'm very happy with mine.you can get your big parts on e-bay,then all the small parts from mike dunn at madenterpise.com.not the cheapest way to go but its a factory set up and lots parts out there for up grades.

I beg to differ. I am just about done piecing together parts for a L/Harley swap on a F250 (requires more parts) and I'll have just over $3200 in it when it's all said and done. You show me a kit, that has this much potential, reliability, fit and finish for a price near that. Remember the Lightning boards are floating with parts!!!

My used procharger set-up only has $2100 in it, so used you can do cheaper than the L-swap. Not to argue which is better, just that there are many ways go about it.:thumbsup:
