Got Blown!!!
Got my Kenne Bell dyno tuned today by ST Motorsports! The car put down 462rwhp with 100 degree weather today. Adam said it's good for another 20 hp at night with cooler conditions!! Ernie and Standpede at HCM did the install. Thing looks, sounds, and drives amazing! It's a whole different ride! Thanks to all the guys involved. They are all a great bunch of guys!

Yeha It made the my loudmouths way louder! I actually video taped the dyno pull too. So Im going to post the video as soon as I get a chance! Supposedly the more boost you run, the louder the kenne bell whine gets. I can hear mine at WOT thou.

Excellent! It is great to hear such a happy ending considering you purchased the unit off ebay for what? $2,600??? Did you need additional parts?
I am happy for you that all turned out well.
Congrats.

It was 2,800 and yea. another 1200 + in parts. all together, installed, and dyno tuned ran me about 5k. Still a pretty good deal thou I think. I'm an owner! Oh well! lol. The 1200 in parts pissed me off thou. There was way more stuff missing than originally stated in the auction. Mostly brackets, bolts, and hoses, but that stuff added up.

All's well that ends well!
To keep it in persective, see equation below.
Screwed F/I+ install @ $5K = EXCELLENT $/HP
For all who are wondering at SD05GT's costs, he purchased the unit used on eBay and it works! So, it is a good story of getting blown for a good price.

You know what, I did see that car. At ST Motorsports right? It was out in the parking lot. I was standing there admiring your blue stripes (vista or sonic blue?) and your wheels. Your wheels are GT40 wheels right? Car is badass. I'm not sure about the motor being in it or not thou...

Thank you for putting it into better perspective Crazy! The KB feels so awesome. The Cars should have came like this from factory! Oh yeah, stock suspension and wheels/tires actaully feel much better than I thought they would. I thought I would be in trouble, but it feels great. Probably do a Spec 2+ next.
