Makes fitting the intercooler much easier since you'd otherwise have to cut up the stock bar to make room for it.

304whp with a 9.4psi spring as measured on a Mustang Dyno, which is approx 349whp on a Dynojet

Was running it for many months and track days, then a connecting rod was bent soon after installing the EBCS at 14psi (400whp). Was logging at the time and the tune was on point, but considering the abuse the motor has had in the past it just gave up from the wear, despite my running the best race oil on the market, haha. Common failure on stock power NA motors, too. Seen plenty of stock boosted motors last a while at 400whp as well, so it's hard to pinpoint just what went wrong until I have a look inside.

Planning a rebuild right now. Lots of options to consider. Lots of time to do it right.

I'd be willing to bet it was a result of your oil loss incident when you first installed the kit. Same thing happened to Lam. It seems once you dump oil, no matter how fast you turn it off, the motor's a time bomb.
