Well it's official...after battling with the brass oil feed fittings, I am officially supercharged! :D The sound is unbelievable..I've got a permanent grin from ear to ear. Hopefully this weekend I should get her on a dyno and I'll be able to give her a nice run on the boost. Many thanks to the crew over at MPH for hooking me up with a killer combo.

Oh yeah, my exhaust sounds so much louder now than before too.

:SNSign:
 
13.2 NA is gonna make for one hell of a sweet time with forced induction...:D

Congrats man. Hope the engine holds up fine with the mileage on it...

What mods did you have NA to get down to a 13.2?

I ran 13.2 with the following mods at the time...

3.73's
Steeda NA ECU reflash
Steeda UD pulleys
Steeda Tri-ax
C&L plenum
70mm TB
K&N drop in (silencer removed)
UPR O/R X pipe
King Cobra clutch (now replaced with Spec II)
Auburn Pro posi diff.
Stock catback with Flowmaster Delta 40 mufflers
X2C coilover kit (now replaced with Steeda springs)
Nitto drag radials mounted on 15" Welds

I ran a 13.5@102 with stock h-pipe on street tires. I've since ditched the coilover setup (complete garbage) and I'm going with a more modest suspension that's more forgiving for street use. I still think I'll be able to hook up pretty well on the track if I run the welds again.

I'm hoping for low 12's, maybe a high 11 with my new setup..:hail2:

As far as my mileage, I'm hoping she'll hold up too (knocking on wood)...but the engine has been very reliable for me and runs like the day I bought it. It was my ex daily driver for 2 years. I wouldn't even think about going FI unless the tune was good, and MPH has a great rep. for their safe/reliable tunes.
