To many people, when it comes to engine output, more is more. If you’re one of those folks, we have great news: Ford Racing Parts (FRP) has announced new supercharger kits for the 2021-26 F-150, and the 2024-26 Mustang GT and Dark Horse equipped with the Coyote 5.0-liter V-8. Horsepower figures are boosted as high as 810 with 615 lb-ft of torque.
Co-developed with Whipple Superchargers, both Gen 6 3.0-liter blowers are designed to run on 91-plus octane and use Whipple’s inverted twin-screw design, a dual-pass intercooler, and exclusive Ford Racing calibration. Most importantly, they’re covered by a three-year/36,000-mile warranty.
Priced at $10,250, the supercharger kit for the Coyote-powered F-150 is slightly cheaper than the Mustang’s $10,500 setup. According to Ford Racing Parts, it pumps up the truck’s engine from 400 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque to 700 horses and 590 lb-ft — increases of 75 percent and 44 percent, respectively.
The Mustang GT and Dark Horse supercharger package adds a 92mm throttle body, GT500 port fuel injectors, and cold spark plugs (which FRP says are “designed and intended for competition use only or off-highway use only”). Those changes add up to a huge jump in power. In stock form, the Mustang GT’s Coyote V-8 produces a maximum of 486 horsepower and 418 lb-ft when it’s paired with the optional active exhaust. The Dark Horse’s enhanced version of the 5.0 pumps out 500 and 418, respectively. With the FRP/Whipple supercharger installed, the Coyote (with the active exhaust system) makes its rear tires howl with 810 horsepower and 615 lb-ft (the regular exhaust comes up 10 ponies short).
Do the math and you’ll see that that first figure is just five short of the Mustang GTD’s horsepower rating. Using the Dark Horse as the baseline, calculations show that the blower increases horsepower by 62 percent and torque by 47 percent. In other words, that’s more — a lot more.
