It was more impressive as I watched a few of your other videos which shows the improvment. Great work.

Now quit teasing us and get to the track on a cool day and let her rip:thumbsup

Yeah this has been an interesting process for sure. Trust me I would love to get her to the track right now and will the moment I can get over there and hammer it.
 
New complete turbo back exhaust system in final testing phases.

Very nice! Got any dyno measurements?
 
Picked the car up in Miami yesterday morning drove to west palm and dyno'd 3 viper trucks until 10;30 last night and drove home to st Augustine and got in around 2am. So to date I have not had any time at all to do that. All thing's being equal I hope to get an afternoon this week to spend some quality dyno time with her again.
 
A few more shots

Thanks Bill, she works like a champ too. Complete drop in replacement with 25% more cooling capacity

You know very well that I like high quality OEM fitting assemblies. In this case a 100% aluminum radiator without what I suspect were OEM plastic tanks IMO is a great thing and then add to this greater capacity and likely a more efficient core = a home run in my mind.

Keep up the great work

Alright the 2 bar 15 psi limitation is out of the way now and I moved up to a 3 bar map sensor that will allow a peak of 30 psi. Here comes hi boost woohoo ! :biggrin
 
Since Ford really limited the stock top end (I think 130ish) what is the top end now with all the mods?
