I agree, looks good now dial it in and get it back out there. Car should go easy 12s, and trap a ton more mph!

it will make its power from 3k to when i shift. which is around 55-5600

it makes boost around 3k and peaks at 5 psi at 5k +

i have the SC trim, its the cheapest kit that vortech makes for the mustang. makes 5 psi which isnt much but you can feel it definatly.

i messed with the timing some and it really helped , it was at 10 and i put it at 13 and it liked it alot, i could tell a small power increase.

tonight i got my cooling issue sorted out and spent a while driving and tuning on the car a bit. i bumped the timing to 15* base at idle and it seemed to like it, also got my idle set good and i messed with FP some. car seems to be running a little better. i can tell in the upper rpms its alot smoother.

sometimes it just take a good old drive around and tinker with stuff and it works.
