Also what did you do for exhaust? I'm guessing you'll keep your magnaflow setup but what the midpipe? Did the kit include a new one?

I currently have Lethal's 3" offroad H pipe with their resonator delete OTA pipes. Sure, it necks down to 2.75" @ the back of the midpipe, but I plan on doing exhaust cutouts for racing. The kit does not include anything exhaust past the downpipe because it will bolt up to anything factory or aftermarket made to fit the factory header.

No more fog lights, as they do not fit with the new intercooler. No worries, as I plan to change upper and lower grills to Roush.

is she a runner?

Oh yeah, been driving it some. Runs great, but still haven't went WOT due to poor weather on my off days and lack of traction. Still have to get a datalog this morning up to 5500 rpm to test A/F

From that picture it doesn't seem like the intercooler is getting much airflow to/through it?

I thought the same thing, however, IAT's are always within 3-5*F of ambient while driving and within 10-12*F idling in traffic. This car has far better IAT's after the intercooler than the GT500 I owned previously.

Awesome thread. I do agree about the intercooler location. I like it lower, only visible from the lower grill. I'd move it down.

I would love to see some POV videos driving and some WOT pulls to hear how the turbos sound!

can you hear the turbos spool with this kit? the twin hellion kit with the 60mm turbos. You couldnt even hear the turbos at WOT I dunno if being a auto had anything to do with that or just the size of the turbos?

Not possible to do so. The intercooler brackets place it where it is, only adjustable forward and back, not up and down. As stated before, IAT's are nice.

Awesome looking kit Troy.:beer:

Thank you sir!

Clips coming soon. Track and street runs

YES!!!!

With the Circle D 2B 258mm stall in this car, from take off it flashes up to 3k rpm. Giving it just a touch more throttle up to 3500, you hear the whistle getting loud. Bring it to 4k, they are singing you a sweet tune. Let off the throttle 100% and the BOV is psh....psh....psh.

Awesome build unleashed!

Any plans to move battery to the back?

Can't wait to see this on dyno and some strip runs!!!

Thanks, and not at this time. Perhaps in the future, but I'd hate to lose the nice battery mount.

Dyno and vids will come soon as the tune is completely dialed in. Stay tuned for updates.
