It is ON :)
Drove the GT to St. Louis today and got the tune checked. Was amazed that it was dead on, and the A/F ratio only varys like .4 all the way thru the band. After I hit it and it does that short spike thing it never gets away from 11.1 to 11.4 AFR Tim and MPH are truly amazing tuners, never even seeing the car.
On the Mustang Dyno at Mid Coast the car put down 386.7 RWHP @ right around 6k. The dyno shows it at 5582 but they were having problems with the RPM reading correctly.
Put down 379.1 RWTQ as well. I was extremely pleased with these numbers. They are saying this is between 420 and 430 RWHP on a dynojet !!
Car is simply amazing. Competely streetable down low, you cannot even tell the blower is on. Got a solid 20 MPG on the way there, which is what it got before the blower. Hit the gas and from about 3500 the car just pulls and pulls. I am having to get used to 1st gear all over again, unless its on a really sticky street the nittos just blow off.
Got some video and I am gonna try to edit it tonight, maybe tomarrow, and post it on streetfire. Haven't checked it yet, but I think I might have some footage of the blower pipe popping off on the first run, musta not had it on tight
BTW, I am in the chat atm. Come in and congradulate me

RE: It is ON :)
great stuff!! that tune should really help your engine stay healthy under that boost. with your supporting mods, the only weakness i can see is the rods. hopefully your engine will hold up for a while, and a new block won't have to go in until you are ready. then you can just go nuts with the boost.
