Got my TTFox on the dyno and was "underwhelmed" so far with the power.
Did find an issue related to voltage causing spark blowout, however I believe my turbo kit (hot side specifically from engine to turbos) is woefully undersized and causing alot of backpressure.
At any rate, new alternator from Mechman on the way to fix voltage dropping issue.
Then back to the dyno to pin the turbos open and see how much boost/power it can make before my next iteration of the car.

I don't know much about turbo's, but the ones you have are really holding you back.
Only 20 hp per lb of boost? Not that good.
All thing considered, for what they cost, you are getting max performance out of them.

Did some suspension changes and also changed the wheels.
Trying to dial the car in and prepare it for the track.

Oh it’s not legal in the states (that I know of) either but it all depends on where you live as to how much tolerance. My T-Bird still has 5% and they don’t say anything but it’s not driven much. Mustang is all 20% but that is legal where I’m at.

Here in NYS even if the Police leave you alone, they will fail you at the annual safety inspection if the side windows are less than 70% unless you have an exemption.
