That pretty much sounds exactly what I want to do on my car. I keep reading good things about JDM.
If you do go with a Saleen supercharger (that's their specialty).......I wouldn't go to anyone but JDM for my tunes. What's great is they did all their R+D on their own cars....and they have a shop sponsored Saleen s/c'd car that they have running at the track on 13psi right now. So they've walked the walk as far as these setups go. And they keep finding solutions to all the little problems that come with running bigger boost on these cars. It's good to have ppl that know what they're doing.

P.S. Steve just told me that the meet they had in Thibodaux last night was the last one they are gonna have for the season.[&o]
He said there's going to be one last one in Houma next Saturday. I'll have to see if I can make that one, but right now I may have plans.

Had car dyno-tuned yesterday at StangHi Performance off Seigen Lane, Baton Rouge. Wonderful experience. Cody took time also to explain in detail, what was going on and how things worked. And that's really important to someone mechanically challenged like me.
All in all a great investment in time and money. Highly recommend both dyno-tuning and StangHi.

Sounds good. I've been trying to find a mustang specific shop in this area for a little while now. Good to know there's one not "too" far from me.

Firstly...must give full credit to John, who actually drove the car on the track. I decided to use his 22 year-old reflexes over my 55 year old ones. Still got some traction issues but better since putting on a wheel-hop reducing kit and control arms. Now I am thinking of changing stock gears but car still has to stay my daily ride.

Per time slip for last run

60 foot 1.678
1/4 11.952
mph 115.06

It was really quite cold out there. Girlfirend and I froze our "bits and pieces" off. Enjoyed watching all cars race across the line. There was a wreck early-on however, a very fast car hit the left wall towards the end and then struck the right wall hard. Saw ambulance arrive and car being towed. Track was closed for quite a while. Hope driver recovers fully.

Really awesome numbers for stock Pirelli's. I think some better tires will improve those times a good bit. I'm only at 408rwhp and I can tell you the difference between my old 235 Pirelli's and my new 285 BFG's is nite and day. The car just hooks and gits...

Yea, my car's loving this cold weather. I took her out onto Hwy90 Wednesday nite and let her "breath" a little bit. It's like a totally different car from during the summer with 95 degree weather and 100% humidity. I was making almost 6 lbs of boost at one point........and I'm still on the 4psi pulley.

I'm hoping to have my suspension done in the next few weeks and then I'm hittin No Problem.
