Add free flowing exhaust, clutch, and guages (boost, wideband, egt, and so forth). That is all we know for sure at this point.

haha that would be nice...The nice thing about force feeding our cars is the light weight of our cars to begin with,....with exception of those who install tons of stereo stuff,... At roughly 2400lbs (manual) and 200 crank hp or around 160whp the xbs should run low 14s, high 13s. There are many cars now that can hit those numbers without any modification, the mustang gts being one of them.

If the clutch do not go, the head gasket may be next depending on the boost

But it will be a lot of fun doing it if you can afford a break

I cant see how anyone could be "smart" enough to turbo any car without FIRST upgrading the clutch.

After finishing one of our Noble projects, I took the car out for a spin. Ofcourse naturally many people have never even seen an M400 so they want to know what it can do. I get revved on all the time. Many times by 350Zs, Vettes, 911s, etc. I dont even try to race them but I bet many of them think they beat me. LOL. I found out when one of the guys came here and was telling a co-worker how he smoked an M400. Just then I came in and asked him "this M400" ?? lol........right buddy, Its not a race when the other guy isnt racing.
