Installation Instructions
1999 Ford 4.6 Mustang Cobra (4 Valve)
Before beginning this installation,
please read through this entire instruction booklet
The Vortech Maxflow Power Cooler system was designed as a street/strip orient-
ed aftercooler, specifically for use on 1999 Ford 4.6 Mustang Cobra vehicles
equipped with a Vortech supercharger producing up to approximately 580 horse-
power.
As with any power enhancing product, this system is intended for use on healthy,
well-maintained engines. Vortech Engineering is not responsible for engine dam-
age. Installation on new vehicles will not harm or adversely affect the break-in
period so long as factory break-in procedures are followed.
For best performance and continued durability, please take a note of the following key points:
1. Use only premium grade fuel 92 octane or higher (R+M/2).
2. Always listen for any sign of detonation (pinging) and discontinue hard use (no boost)
until problem is resolved.
IMPORTANT: If the vehicle still has the battery located in the factory position, it
must be relocated into the trunk to make room for the water tank
assembly. Vortech part number 8N150-010 is a Heavy-Duty
Battery Relocation Kit that may be purchased separately.
Commonly available “universal” relocation kits may be used but
they will most likely contain a smaller cable. Additional fabrication
may also be necessary when using a “universal” kit.
