Another option is a Boss 302 short block. Just installed one in my car. The pistons are the weak link in the S550 short block. The Boss has forged pistons.
I have 95# DWs in my car. Drives like stock. A couple of well know tuners will not tune a car with DW injectors - PBD and AED. I wonder why. Makes no sense as DW posts the tuning info on their website. VMP has no issues tuning them.
You "can" if the planets align. I have 1,000cc DW injectors, 82mm pulley and a JMS BAP. I had enough fuel on E70-E80. Ran out when it hit E90. STFTs were not happy with E90. My car trapped the same MPH with a 72mm pulley and 93 plus Torco as it did on E80. Torco brought the octane up to around...
There is an old saying that is always true = you get what you pay for. CPR sources their turbo units from a company about 10 miles from where I live. They make a very good turbo.
Here is my take on blowers. TVS has instant power, centrifugal needs rpms to build power, Whipple is between the two. You WILL need a high stall converter with a centrifugal and 2.9 Whipple. Just speaking from experience. I would go CPR single turbo if I had to do it all over again. BTW a...
I think the opened up air box with the AFE inverted filter made just as much HP as the JTL. No numbers to prove it though. It is a lot better than the stock air box. Seems like I paid around $65 shipped from Amazon for the filter.
I run a 160 in my car. Might as well run the stock one. The radiator is the problem with these cars. It is way too small. A Ford Racing fan will help I guess as it moves a lot more air.
Wanted to get a touch move cold air in. I installed one of the inverted filters also. I got just as much boost with it as I did with the JLT. JLT just added super charger whine.
I have decided to sell my '12 GT A6 car. It has 35,280 miles. I installed a 2015/16 short block a few months ago. List of mods - Roush blower, JLT cai, 75,79 and 82mm pulleys, VMP BAP, 1,000cc injectors, White Line LCAs, SCT tuner with 4 VMP tunes, O/R X pipe, several sets of wheels and tires...
I am in search of a little more horsepower. I currently run cat deletes and stock mufflers. I really don't like loud mufflers and absolutely hate drone. Thought about GT500 mufflers. Just looking for other options.
Not exactly certain what caused it. Sounds like a broken rod. Probably too much HP on a stock engine. Trying to decide between an Aluminator short block or '15-'16 stock block. 700-725whp is enough for me. Ford Racing says the new stock engine has basically Boss rods and pistons. I can get an...
I have come to the conclusion that nothing will hook on the street. My MT ET Street Pros certainly will not. A TVS on E85 is not street dig friendly. My car is lowered about 1 1/2" in the rear by cutting the rear springs. I have Whiteline LCAs. Tried the BMR relocation brackets to no avail...
These may just fit my car. Backspacing is within 5/8" of the SVE 10x15 wheels. Jegs guy said they should fit over the rear calipers without an issue. $92 each delivered with a military discount. http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS-Performance-Products/555/67038/10002/-1
