Hi. Take a look at

<a href="http://www3.sympatico.ca/david.sansom/SuperchargedTaurus.html">My Supercharged '89 Taurus GL 3.8Litre</a>

for the whole story (so far) about my project car.

Here are some snaps..

That's awesome. I love it


It must be great spankin Hondas and stuff with that !!

That's so cool. Does the whole car appear stock ? Talk about a sleeper.

nice

It probably appears stock, but, theres nothing hiding the sound the supercharger makes

Nice sleeper, did you add the super charger? Or did that come with the car?

Sleeper

Hi. No, I didn't buy it this way. I invented the drive mechanism, bought the Paxton on ebay, built all the mounting hardware from stock steel and did the installation myself.

To a previous reply: Yes, you can hear the S/C if you know what to listen for, but most guys I go up against don't know what they're dealing with since it's so unlikely to find a Taurus with this much guts.

I can beat just about anything because they're so surprised at how fast my grocery-getter takes off. I've gone up against some pretty nasty/agressive drivers and wiped them off the road. I just love the look on their faces in my rear view mirror!

Hondas ??!! I don't even have to use the S/C to beat them. I've done many upgrades that make my 3.8 a killer even without the S/C. My biggest problem is taking care not to spin the wheels at take-off. I make so much torque right now, it's easy to lose a race by hitting it too hard and end up just sitting at the start in a cloud of rubber smoke. I'm working on fixing that problem this summer, but want to keep my changes as a surprise. Watch my web site later in the year to see how it comes out.

I bet you do shock a few people, with the way you have your car set up. I'd love to see some of the looks you get after you've stomp someone in a race.

I love sleepers(watching them beat someone besides me that is)
