Also, do any of you have problems with overheating? Did you have to move your stock fans? Any burned wires?

560 on a mustang at 6100. the curve was still climbing sharply. I normally pull it to 7k. we WILL make over 700 on a dynojet at 7k. this was on pump gas with drag slicks too.

Not done yet, and I started this before Phamspeed even came out with their kit, so no haters... This is a pic of it only tacked, but as of this afternoon it's all MIG'd up (this is a couple weeks worth of work for me, since I have to juggle class and a fiancee also)

I say not bad for a 22 year old with ZERO fabrication experience using his school's garage and tools

Jammer that is a sweet set up. What kind of power are you putting down. If you have any other angles, I would love to see them.
