Banks power in my F150. What do you think? 100 more hp, and 239lbs of tq.

To get some more power, I am thinking about going with this. You get another 100hp and 239lbs of torque on the 4.6liter truck engine I have.
Price is 1769.99

What do you all think of this? They dont make a Supercharger, or a turbo system for the 4.6 liter 2005 truck motor.
Seems like decent power for cost. Since nothing else is made for it. You think 239lbs of torque would be noticeable towing the boat?

I put a bunch of Banks stuff on my F250 when I had a diesel. I was deeply disappointed in the Banks products. The exhaust really didn't have any sound, the performance gain was really pitiful, and I really didn't notice any difference with their intake elbow. I ended up keeping the exhaust and bought a Hypertech tuner. That made a huge difference. I would definitely consider something else.

I havent found anything else. Can you help me look?

Is yours a 24Valve? I found this:

Not sure if this will fit yours. Doesn't say 4.6L or not but it does fit 2005 F150.

Not sure. Has to be a 2005 F150 STX 4.6 Liter 281

That sounds like an aweful amount of HP/TQ for bolt-ons and a tune. I would like to see some before and after dyno charts. If the claims are true thats an awesome bang for the buck.

Agreed!

I wonder if you can get the Saleen supercharger to bolt up to your truck engine. There can't be that much difference between the truck and mustang 4.6L engines.
