supercharger

It seems like it's always something simple. Doc, still gotta give it to you, that was a big undertaking to install the SC by yourself. Good job.

bottom line- i pick the car up this afternoon!

Great news!!! and just in time for the track!!! We better see that thing when you get a chance!!

Did you get my pm

Woohoo! Are you runnin the nitrous still?!?! If not you should!

no nitrous, i made 525 to the wheels, so he had to tune it down some. to much power is sweet! i have a date with a car wash soon, the car runs good

actually, (except for not tightening everything up better) it was a pretty easy install

Dude that is so bad! I can't wait to see it! When are we all going to the track?

Wow! Those are great problems to have. How much did you detune? I figure 450-475 with a safe tune? Can't wait to see the finished product.

WOW!!!!

Long time comming "a fast grabber orange mustang" just kidding Jarrod

Yup that 14 second Monster Cobra you used to have was a beast as well. So whats your fastest time to date in a mustang Justin? I dont believe youve even seen the 13s. hehe Finally in a 3V you achieve that mark...couldnt do it in your 4V...Or was it the driver?

he didnt dyno it after the last run, just pulled some timing etc to tone it down just a little, we need to get out to the track in sept and give it a run

cobra 281rwhp 300rwtq. Shifting at 5,000 rpm when redline is 7,000 and a 2.4 60ft. Do the math. Driver error

I shifted at 8000RPM...it just didnt have it in her.

You and brent never made a good pass. You both missed gears. brent missed third and you missed a gear also. Im the only one that made a clean run but i was the error.

The 60ft and 1/8 mile timeslip tells all. I had the best run of the night going until I missed 4th. Dont need to finish the race to know the result. I can tell off the other 60 and 1/8. It would have been AT MOST a 13.9..most likely a 14.1

Ugh, not sure what all that noise was.....sounds like an orange-car problem :P

So how'd Doc do (did he run?) Having to dial-down the power on a Procharger always seemed strange to me (no offense- Doc). It's, just, the KB guys researched this crap ad-nasieum, so if you were having to dial-back the power, then Procharger was, in my opinion, sending out kits with too much boost in the first place.

KB did 8#'s for a reason. It is/was what's daily-drivable. I think it's 15 HP/#boost, so 12 would be another 60RWHP. That puts it to the verified breaking-point.

I hope all is well, and would suggest a MAX of 12#'s if you want to have a good life for the shortblock.

some of it is the other things that i have done to the car ie delete plates, cams, headers, throttle body etc. i got quite a bit out of those mods with the procharger. without those things then you would be looking at 450-480 to the wheels, my boost was right below 10
