Thats exactly the plan! But then ima take the stock stang motor and build it up possibly scratching the stock iron block to go with smething larger and much stronger to get anther 500hp frm twinturbos possibly and turn the car strickly into a track car. Or maybe even an insane 1000+hp super car killer. But for now ima stick to my 500or so hp goal.
Comments on the parts I already have because like i said got most part cheap or free and want to know if theyre all worth useing and are quality part or is there something better out there?

Sry if this is a real nooby question but i do know that it will run alot beeter with a good tune from a shop but doesnt the blower come with a stock tune i can run till i have the time and money to drive to a shop to have it tuned?

The Kenne Bell blowers come with a satisfactory tune but the Centri blower kit tunes blow ***. Unless of course if you ordered it from MD or similar.

I would get it professionally tuned. Look around for a shop and get some prices. I would say Dyno tune is A MUST...

How much cash do you have to play with? That will determine which route you take to get the 500whp goal... as in keeping stock heads, Going with new heads, Ported heads, Cams. Also dont forget your rear end needs upgrading, along with Fuel system.. both end up costing around 1k each..

In my opinion the "canned" tune that comes with a kit is only good enough to let you carefully drive to a tuner to get it checked. My "canned" tune caused the car to run lean at higher rpm. The tuner was able to fix it by adjusting the the A/F ratio rich mid-range. It took a MAFia and a second tune to get it set correctly.

Whats your opinion on the kenne bell chip tunes? I've heard opinions from both sides. I've had many KB owners say they had the A/F checked and it was spot on and they drove around for months, sometimes longer before getting it dyno tuned due to extra mods added, and it pulled great. I've also heard its really just a "meh" tune all around and that theres a good 30 RWHP ready to be unlocked at the same boost level from a dyno tune.

So if i used the stock tune from vortech id b able to safetly drive to the tuner ill use? Cuz ima guna have brenspeed do it and theyre about a 3 hour drive frm my house.

I've seen and heard the same thing. PD blowers are easier to tune and they are more consistant since the make close to peak boost so early the other variables like cams don't bother it much until you have a really aggressive setup. It definitely doesn't pull everything out of the blower my buddy made another 28rw when Pauls H/P tuned his car. (He did change his cat back from a 30 series flow to bassani at the same time so it's kinda "iffy") But he was still making good numbers.
