Nice numbers!
Curious at what RPM peek HP and TQ fell at NA and where it fell with the turbo?

Thanks guys.

I'll try to get the graph for you today if I have a moment.

To be fair, the car still had the turbo on it when it was dynoed N/A(just didn't have a charge pipe) so it did have more of a restriction with the exhaust than normal. He likes to do a N/A pull to get the out of boost part of the map done. So it's not like it made 230rwhp through longtubes etc etc.

I think it made peak power around 4800rpm and held till about 5000 before power started falling off. The combo is very small and simple but the low RPM will give me better shifts and longer life out of the block, just wanted an all around fun car.

Thanks!

-Edit-
It's a Hellion kit with custom intercooler piping done by The Shop out of Kingsport, TN(the ones tuning it, etc etc)

Yeah I think it would make 260-265 probably on that dyno with the correct exhaust.

No idea if it's true but some say those dynocom dynos read lower than mustang dynos. Anyone have any info on that?

Awesome numbers Green, I may have missed it, but what block/stroke are you using?

Here's the combo:

Exploder upper/lower intake(no porting)
Stock Cam
1.72 Rockers
Box Stock TFS heads
Stock bottom end/block
Accufab 70mm TB
AEM
AEM EPM running LQ9 coilpacks
Full 3" exhaust(with 3" catalytic converter)
First gen Hellion turbo kit
-Master Power T70 turbo with .81 exhaust housing
-Tial 38mm WG
-Tial BOV
-Modified intercooler piping by The Shop (The Shop)

Installed the Ford Racing A/C Delete and the March alt bracket. Really cleaned everything up under the hood. Might go ahead and install my battery relocation to help clean things up under the hood for now but everything else is finished. Just lack doing the part throttle/start up on the tuning, should have the car back home this week, can't wait to start driving it!

Man, test fit these and while they don't fit good I guess with a few modifications they COULD fit:



Car is still on the jack in the pic, so it wouldn't have THAT bad of a rake to it.

Underhood pic, dark as hell but I didn't have much to work with(like normal) my lens sucks for this type of stuff:

That cold side piping going to the intercooler looks mean.

Those numbers are great too. I'm going with a TFS top end kit and a B&G T70 setup next year, so this makes me feel really optomistic.

Is it me or is your battery sitting way lower?

It is, there is no tray there at the moment.

It's about to take a trip to the rear.
