    True ricer thinking..If you can make more power with less boost..The motor will live a longer life esp if you run pump gas..

    Its all about the combo of parts.The better your airflow thru the engine ,the more power it will make on less boost.


    Yea you can build it stronger if it blows.But why wait.why worry of damaging the turbo or other reusable parts if it blows..Guys that say that, they will build it when it blows are truely dumbasses in my book.

    Do it right and do it once.The money you spend by piecing it together will be almost 2~3 times what a good build up would run..Esp when you factor it labor(unless you can build it yourself).
    Just Your average 600hp mustang

    I'm hoping it will be done next week sometime. I am just waiting on the exhaust, AEM, and Ignition to get here.

    As far as the car being tuned..... it will be tuned for two different boost settings.

    Ill give ya a call when i get it back.

    Update: The car SHOULD be ready not next week, but the following week sometime.... maybe towards the end of the week.

    The exhaust is scheduled to arrive at BG on 5/3 and I dont know when the AEM and Twin Power are going to get there, prolly after that.

    I'm starting to get restless.....
