The gains are actually better than we were expecting... 45-50awhp over stock at 6000rpm's is awesome... 30-35awhp gains elsewhere is pretty damn good especially on a mustang dyno. Throw in some race gas or meth and the already transformed car will become just downright retarded. Of course this is just my opinion... I'm very happy with the gains. And yes I will be going to a dynojet for more comparisons in a few weeks after I get back from a work trip and have my summer wheels/tires back on, I have lots of pulls on a dynojet in the area at all different stages and a baseline. Unfortunately it will be about 30° warmer, but it will still be a good time. Last edited by jpsimon; 03-16-2010 at 02:38 PM.. |

I was skeptical about the gains, but am now totally stoked since this far exceeded my expectations.
Much respect to Tial and to you for being their 'crash test dummy' !!! |

Since there are a few people complaining about lack of updates and real info and such, I'll tell you straight up right now that I won't have any more big news for a couple weeks. Work caught up with me and I can't get back on the dyno this week, and then Sunday I leave for CTIA in Vegas (for work) for a week.. so there will finally be a delay in this whole process. Hey at least we got as far as we did!

does anyone know a good shop in socal that might want to do a single turbo setup? because after this summer I'm not going to need my car until next summer(not even driving it now until june-september) so its a long time for them to R&D and make good kit. i want to find a shop thats very knowledgeable and me not having to sell my kidney to get it done. |

Very exciting. Nice to see EPL is in the North East. Can't wait to see full results and pricing.

Sick JP, just sick. Nice work Now let's just hope the stock shafts hold up.
Also, any chance you could post a dyno going down to say 1k rpms. I'm curious to see what the low end loss is like with the clipped turbine. I know you said "minimal" but I'm just curious to see what that looks like
