What's daily driving like with that tune? Any back firing or poping going on?

 

21...that's about what I imagined. The air:fuel on this turbo kit is awesome. like a flat 12:1 the whole way through.

We thought about the supercharger and I still consider it a great mod, but for a daily driver with the commute the wife has we needed the gas mileage.

Plus, you can't argue with 252.8 hp and 258 ft./lbs. with basically no other mods but an exhaust.

What kind of numbers does the sc put down?

 

When all said and done, I should be at about 250whp

 

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I was wanting to know ACTUAL numbers, like what he's has proof of on a dyno, not a guesstimate or Toyota's numbers. Thanks though.

Besides, you never know. The turbo I have is actually putting down better numbers at a slightly lower boost than Turbonetics was claiming.

 

I get a consistant 26-28 mpg with the sc. Worst ever was 22.

 

Here is my dyno before I did my header. Its kind of odd, my AF reads alot richer with my AEM O2 sensor but I am guessing that is because it is reading it at my S-Pipe.

 

hmmm, I thought the torque woulda higher on that sc.

You're in the DFW area right? I'd like to see the setup some time.

Oh, and just so I can brag....

 

lol, you have bragging rights at the moment.. I am still considering changing to a turbo, but I wanna do some more work on the S/C before I would switch... maybe even switch cars.

 

No, no...you're thinking about it all wrong. You don't need to switch cars, you just need two.

 

I'm really impressed with the 60' & 1/8th mile times.. nice job.

Not to be a hater but I have no idea how the GT mustang didn't get better then a 14.4.. it should be easily a high 13 (without even having a great driver).. mid 13s with a great driver.

yesterday at immokalee (1/8th mile), there was a '05 GT convertible (5speed) running 8.7's all day long.

 

Hahahah That is very true, and kinda what I meant. If I can get 265-300hp outa my tC, I will keep the S/C and stop with the motor, and I will look for another car to start working on. You are thinking exactly how I am. lol.. We definately have to meet up sometime.. Are you going to the April Fuels day or the DFW cannonball run this weekend?

 

I was suprised as well, just a bad driver I guess. There was a brand new v-6 mustang that I raced on video that turned a 14.9, he said he had turned a 14.6 but I did not see the slip. I did not race personally the v8 gt guy, just saw his slips and he told me he was impressed with my times and asked what the heck I had in the car!
