Preserving the original BMW quality, smoothness, and reliability stands as the cornerstone of VF Engineering's design philosophy. This commitment is exemplified through the meticulous development of VF software, which integrates the dependability of Vortech superchargers and VF's custom software expertise garnered over 15 years of supercharging experience and access to worldwide OEM supply sources, culminating in the creation of the ultimate supercharger system for discerning drivers. All crucial components are crafted entirely in California, undergoing rigorous testing on both the Mustang MD500AWD and in-house Dynojet 224XLC dynamometers, ensuring optimal performance under various conditions. Set at 6 psi, these kits deliver power comparable to, if not surpassing, similar products running at higher boost levels. Over a 12-month period, VF engineers dedicated extensive time to software testing the BMW Bosch ECUs, refining the smoothness and functionality of the supercharged vehicle. Leveraging cutting-edge software flash technology and the latest BMW file versions, VF ensures a seamless and reliable method of software installation, even offering an optional DIY programming cable and email-able software for added convenience. The Vortech supercharger is securely mounted using a CNC machined T3 anodized aluminum 6061-T6 bracket system, positioned in line with a bolt-on crank pulley and additional active OEM tensioner using a dedicated serpentine belt. The active belt tensioner ensures reliability by eliminating belt slip, while custom-molded polypropylene plastic supercharger air ducts maintain an OEM appearance, quality, and function. The integrated Bosch boost overrun system ensures smooth off-throttle cruising and deceleration, and the crankcase ventilation system effectively manages positive pressure. To accommodate varying climate conditions, a removable plastic air box with a K&N induction filter is included. The VF supercharger system remains fully OBD2 compliant and is supported by a one-year unlimited mileage warranty on the product. Installation typically takes 8-10 hours and is non-intrusive, allowing for full reversibility. VF-Engineering supercharger kits are turn-key ready for installation, requiring no additional work or components. Both hardware and software are fully reversible, facilitating easy access for engine maintenance. The linear power delivery is well-suited for both automatic and manual transmissions, remaining within conservative tolerances for an exceptional driving experience.
