Very nice man. What size pulley? More pics of your car/setup?

Have you thought about running an intercooler for lower IAT's and more timing?

Thanks, honestly, I am not sure on the pulley size. They just used the stock pulley's from Saleen. Havent thought of Intercooler yet, just got this today! Maybe in a year or two, will try and up the boost and pulley to get up to 400+ rwh.. but its my understanding dont wana go much higher than that with stock 2V engine.

your tuner should have moved your iat to do a proper tune. i have the same blower and it is nice haveing it self contained. i would run a meth kit and a 3.33 and make about 415-425 rwhp out of that

[stal94gt]

dont take this the wrong way cause i am not dissing your set up at all but a few changes you might want to consider before your retune. the small vac hose at the base of your intake is your evap line and it does not like boost much. i would put a 3/8 check valve in that line. also i would re route your iac so it draws air from your boosted side.

Nice man, it does make good power. If you have more pics post them

It's a KMS powerpipe (same one I have) and most likely the stock 3.6 pulley since its making just under 10psi. This shows you how much more efficient a V3 is over a V1. My car with longtubes and 9psi make 356/371. His car with stock manifolds, and .7psi more, made almost 30rwhp more.

Can you please post your dyno graph? I would like to see the hp curve. My hp curve just went flat after 5300rpms. Just want to compare. I'm guessing that you're also running the AEM dryflow filter?

Come to think of it, looks like you still have the stock throttle body and plenum. If you went 75mm throttle body and C&L Plenum, I bet you would hit 400rwhp

Yea I 'll put the curve up today. I am going to scan it on the CPU here at work. have it up in alittle bit.

Yep, it is a KMS Powerpipe...and I believe your correct on the pulley size too.

intercool it, when it's hot, you'll hate your car...

Thanks Turbo, and I was concered about that as well being at almost 10psi, but my tuner said it should never run hot. He programmed the fan to turn on alittle quicker than usual, but said I wont even see the temp gage move. He's 1 of 3 top tier Vortech installers in the state, so I trust him.

Ya def Shaun, probly be my upgrade next summer. I already spent enough for this summer! But yea that would probly def put me over. Some have said if I had better conditions for my pull I'da got up closer to 400 as it is. (was 83 deg, 40% humidity)

Thanks! I don't know what's up with mine. The graph goes flat after 5300rpms and it doesn't make anymore power, but keeps building boost till 6,000rpms. We were thinking it's the cats, but we dropped the x pipe and the cats looked perfect. I have American Racing longtubes with a catted x. Are you running the AEM dryflow filter? Bob Kurgan did my N/A tune 3 years ago, but Tim Barth at Mr. Norm's Garage did my Vortech tune. If you're not a member already you should consider joining chicagolandmustang.com. I know that my V1 temps get up around 200 degrees. I'll be adding an intercooler and 3.12 pulley in the future after I see what it does at the track. I know Bob uses the STD graphs. So your numbers in SAE are like 376/369.

Turbo probably wasn't talking about it actually running hot, but when its hot outside the car is going to feel like a dog without the intercooler.

That car with a intercooler/tb/plenum is going to make some really nice numbers.

It is o' so sexy too.
