Can the V6 be supercharged? If so, who manufactures the system?

Not yet...
I know of one company that's working on adapting an Explorer X-Charger to the 4.0...
If you live in the SF Bay area, I know of a company willing to give away a free supercharger if you let them use your car for the fitting... from what they've said, the throttle body needs modified somehow...

yes 350hp potential, there is a company that does check out x-charger1.com they have an article in a magazine i get called mustang enthusiast check out the september issue. good source for new stuff. i saw an off road version somewhere that made 400hp. theres another company that is doing r&d on a twin tubo setup that mounts under the car very cool 300+hp potential. of course for about the same cost you could always drop a gt500 drivetrain in from a salvage yard if you can do the work yourself.

Yes, matters what type of supercharger you want. There are turbo's(Powerhouse411, forced4 motorsports(I think that's the right name), roots(x-charger), centrifugals(vortech and procharger), and I'm not sure if there are any other types on the market. Cheapest non-intercooled set-up is vortech at $3.5k~. Turbo's make the most power but are expensive to buy and pay for installation. X-Charger is probably the most popular. Check some video's on youtube to see what each sounds like. Little hint on sounds: Vortech/Procharger-whistle, X-Charger-cool unexplainable, turbo-louder whistle if I remember right with sucking sound. Good Luck!

LOL, yea. In fact you bought my AFE intake from me after I moved to the TI intake and the Zex 100 shot system.
