This is why i'm Daily driving the car myself at 9-10psi. I want our kit to perform reliably on 93 Octane guess. Sure we could setup our car to run on race gas or even e85, but that doesn't really help anyone in the community.

I'll make high horsepower stuff later. That is afterall what we normally do. This is our first venture into low horspower in quite some time.

I had my car out blasting around this morning again giving rides. The general consensus is that it feels like a mid to low 12 second car.

how does the car feel with all that extra power?

any new vids or chrono times for 0-60, 60-160, so on? ))

That's because it is

You have the same peak hp/weight ratio as a 2013 5.0 Mustang

I don't own a vbox. If someone has one to allow me to use I will.

We are going to that after I test pump gas for awhile.

ohey, you now have 1.7 times the power, should be able to hit 160mph now! Drop the rear end to 3.909 or whatever and you just might max the tires out (might need an underbody tray though) :P

Don, take it down the quarter.
I know you want to.
Get some video of it.
Sell some kits, Haha.

Anyways, how long will your testing of this current tune be applicable?

@Don@Accelerated , How are you getting accurate ratings of reliability when your changing your tunes so quickly in-between? i would imagine the best test for reliability would be to test over a significant amount of time. Of-course these are only low boost applications so theres not too much to worry about. Are you just going to keep adding pounds till she blows up or something gives? With that being said, how would you have known if it was the new boost that caused this issue or a combination of things from previous boosts? I would think the best way to test reliability is to have more kits out there on everyday cars.

Totally agree. I'll even throw Don a grand or two.

Haha Im not asking for free kits, Im just curious as to how one justifies a kit as reliable when its only been tested a few weeks and nothing broke. Not throwing punches, just want some clarity.

Parts on the kit, and the kit as a whole in my opinion are deemed solid.
The variable of pressure and the tune (for a duration, and various engine loads) is what needs to be proven at this point in time.

Again my opinion, no attacks

Hows the clutch holding up?
