Well Dyno is done 430 whp 412 tq.
I have to catapult and and it to Justin. The Dyno guy said I was a tad lean. Afr hit 12.3 to 12.5 on one run wot. He said tell the tuner I'm sure Justin will tweak the tune and I might lose a bot of power. Is 12.5 that bad?

1. Alum D/S
2. Pypes muffler deletes
3. Accel coils
4. Short shifter (even though this really does not affect perf directly).
I did have a CAI before the blower, but it curretly has the stock box with the paper filter. It also has a custom tune, not the Roush tune. Oops almost forgot, it's a 5spd.

On a side note the customer service with Roush has been awesome. The only thing missing in my kit was the little "L" bracket support for the alternator. I called Monday to tell them. All they wanted was my name and address and it was on my door step Thursday.

Hey Tampa my car has a lot of suspension mods. As far as performance, this is what I got:
1. Alum D/S
2. Pypes muffler deletes
3. Accel coils
4. Short shifter (even though this really does not affect perf directly).

I stole the chrome M90 kit from Gary Yeoman Ford for 3460.00 shipped! On Roush's site, only the black is left for 05'-06' models and the price shot back up to 4999.00! It's been a long time since I felt like I got a helluva deal on something. Don't know who the OP was for this sale but thanks!

LOL! Barring any unforeseen circumstances it will be running this weekend. I've been turning wrenches professionally for 20 years and I must say....Roush did a great job engineering this kit. Everything just fits without aggravation. However I think that the throttle body spacer that attaches to the back of the blower could have been cast with a little higher angle so it's not so close to the valve cover. Regardless, I give them an A+ for excellent instructions, packaging the kit in hardware groups and ease of install.

I've heard that yes, the coils do make a difference, I just don't know that to be true or the amount of HP they represent. There was an article maybe a year ago in one of the mustang mags that did a coil install & the car picked up about 10RWHP, but I don't remember what other mods the car had. I had a damaged coil, so I ended up replacing the entire set, that's why I got them.
