About the 1998–2011 Ford Crown Victoria
from the generation archive
The 1998 model year brought a thorough update of the Ford Crown Victoria, the rear-wheel-drive, body-on-frame Panther sedan shared in platform with the Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car. For 1998 Ford revised the rear suspension to a Watt's-linkage layout, added aluminum front control arms, fitted larger brakes with dual-piston front calipers, and standardized 16-inch wheels. The 4.6L SOHC two-valve modular V8 rose to 200 horsepower with single exhaust and 215 horsepower with the dual-exhaust high-output tune, then to 220 and 235 horsepower for 2001-2002. The most significant chassis change came for 2003, when Ford fitted a fully boxed, partly hydroformed frame and replaced the long-running recirculating-ball steering with rack and pinion, raising civilian output to 224 and 239 horsepower. Two variants defined the run: the LX Sport, offered from 2002 with the dual-exhaust engine, a firmer suspension, a floor-shifted console, and larger wheels, and the Police Interceptor, the P71 fleet car that gained the "Police Interceptor" name and badge for 1999 and reached 250 horsepower for 2004 through 2011. Ford ended United States retail sales after the 2007 model year and built the final Crown Victoria for fleet and export in September 2011.

There are some superchargers out there that can be made to fit and some are specific such as can be found from the likes of:
Kenny Brown performance, Vortec Engineering, www.adtr.net and a couple others have made them
A website to check out that you will find useful is www.crownvic.net there is many articles in refrence to Crown Vics, Town Cars, Grad MArquis, and of course the Marauder if you havent checked it out yet you might wanna try it. I am sure it will help you.
In re to mods on my car I never went with a chip or supercharger mainly cosmetic mods, but as of now I no longer have the 99 or 2000 as now I have a 2004 Sport, that just went out of warranty so now I will slowly be doing my mods and shooting for the 400 horsepower mark without supercharger.
Thansk for you comment and inquiry and I hope I have been helpful.

In all your mods, have you found any superchargers to fit? and what is the best chip to get rid of the electronic limiter?
