Default Huron Speed A/C kit

Wanted to share my turbo build from Huron speed. I am very happy with this kit. What i'm most pleased with and money cannot buy, is the customer service. Through out my build as I had questions Jon was right there, quick response to emails or phone calls. So in turn, as I was building the car and the questions came about, I did not have to wait a day or day(s) for an answer to keep wrenching. I'm sure I wore Jon out with some questions since my engine is not stock and his kit is designed for a stock LS based engine, but it worked out great.

Thanks Jon

Dyno tuning, so far on 12psi the car made 600hp and 750 torque. This is on a mustang dyno with a stall and auto, so I believe the numbers are lower then what it actually is...Next week i'm turning up the boost to 20 psi

yap, its a comp turbo, if anyone ever buys this turbo i recommend lock tightening the 4 allen screws on the center section to the cold side, mine loosened up and started to leak oil, also it did not come pre drilled on the cold side for a fitting for my eboost reference.

My engine is a 6.0L gen iv block, i bought it new from the dealer. I have LSA heads ported, callie internals.

Waste gate spring is only 7 psi right now, my eboost will only get 12psi out of it....so if it pulls like a bitch on the street now, i cannot wait to put more air into her. Oh, i also have meth, but its currently not active as we where having problems tuning the car with it right now.

I absolutely love driving the car, this is my first turbo car, the power is just awesome. Almost 90% of my friends are cops, so if i want to drive like an ******* for a bit, go pick one of them up and treat them for a ride. They love it !!!

I just took the car for a nice ride this morning to look at a job. I'm telling you guys its sooooo much fun to drive this car now. The tune is only 70% done, but safe to drive. It was so worth changing to turbo.

I just took my sister for a quick ride a few minutes ago, man i wish i had my go cam in the car, absolutely priceless to see her reaction. I leave her house and while in 2nd gear i give it half throttle and the front lifts up and starts pulling super hard with tires squeeling. She starts yelling at me to pull over and just let her out of the car and she will walk home......it was so funny watching her trying to find something to grab onto. i'm still laughing seeing her face. LOL

I would like to thank Jason from J&J speed in Elma NY for building a killer long block for me. This guy is so **** putting these things together its nuts !!

So, I have been asked how i ended up running my exhaust from the hot side. What i did was cut alittle off the hot side pipe, welded a v band end onto the pipe. then made a small piece of pipe to my off road pipe i utilized from my old build. it worked great because of the oval shape to clear my floor. I did wrap the pipe all the way down to keep heat down.
