GShelby09 Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 I have a 09 Shelby GT500 5.4 Supercharged I have read where people throw the Hellion TT kit on with the stock supercharger jw if anyone has done this and if you had to upgrade anything else and what was the power gain hp and torque wise and was it worth the price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyperStangs Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 I work with John at Hellion with several of our cars, and while you CAN do just about anything and dual systems are out there, I think he would agree that a switch is a better alternative. The limitations on a turbo are the same as a positive displacement option, you can break anything with enough boost. The system we used on our Hellanor car can produce well over 20 pounds, but we keep it in the 6 pound area and comfortably make 600+ to the wheels without any problems. I personally like turbos and I've made the prediction that they will be used on the new SVT line.... that's just me talking, I have no information to substantiate that claim.

JeffJ Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 I've seen a few twin Hellion into charged cars. I haven't yet seen one work well together yet. They work ok, but you can usually do much more with better drivability by choosing one or the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2010KonaBlueGT Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 There are quite a few Ford GTs with the combination of a turbocharger and supercharger. IIRC, that's called "Compound Supercharging". There are at least a couple of past threads on it here on TS. Phill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
