Thanks for all the input 4.6 owners. I wouldn't be supercharging it myself, it's already been supercharged. I have $12k saved up and trying to move up from a chinese shitbox

85k miles isn’t that much for a 05-09 mustang. One you start to get into the 150-170k range the trans and suspension are most likely on their way out. But it really all depends on how the previous owner used the car.

>>inb4 5.0 or bust
don't matter if u inb4, u want a 4.6 lol

should have started with this mate. Much easier than the route you took. People that know more about mustangs will look it over and tell you what they think.

I want a 5.0. I can't afford a 5.0.
My bad. The guy who posted it didn't give a whole lot of info, so I wasn't sure if it mattered or not.

Looks like it was taken care of clean car and install almost looks stock. Does he have records its a must I would say for a car that has been modified. Also make sure to get a good mechanic to look it over and test drive it a bit on WOT. That car was obviously raced but if maintained well those engines are semi indestructible. Any issues should pop up during wot test. Try to do as much test as you can afford and they will let you do, with modified cars no matter the brand are hit or miss since they are modified. Remember service records for install of the super and any other maintenance mechanical records. But overall should be a safe bet.

I’ve always heard that anything between 480-500 is the danger zone for the 4.6. It can vary a bit I guess.

85k miles is nothing for those motors. Turbos are a bit safer than superchargers for most high mileage applications though (less heat and not always in boost)
Better bet for reliability is to just rebuild the stock bottom end with new internals, gaskets/seals and go 5.4 heads (lincoln navigator motor). Bolts right up and a moderately tuned 5.4 can make 400 no problemo.
