just spent the last hour reading your thread, good work i also had some issues running my FM merge through with the umi TA. sounds healthy, you gained crazy HP with the cut-out open, what cat-back are you running? take it to the track and see what she runs!!! also what rear end and gears do you have?

edit: ohh yeah now you can update your sig!! great job!!

Thanks for the complement it makes writing this whole thing worthwhile. The car has a stock catback for stealth and its just nice to have the car not be obnxous and loud if I choose to keep the cutout closed, this is why there is such a huge jump in power. I will have the car at the track next weekend for Pinks all out I wanted to go this weekend but I'm afraid to break right before an event I've had planned for a while. The gears are stock 3.23, a 9" with some 3.7s are next on my list for sure.

Great job overall for sure! I am going to make a thread like this when I get some time. I have a **** ton of pics from my LS2 build that is very similar to yours. From getting the 12K mile longblock to where it sits in the car right now awaiting pushrods.

Went to the track this weekend, here atre the results. The car weighs 3700lbs with me in it and a 1/4 tank so its not a lightweight but it does pretty well for a daily driver. The second run is my new PB and on the 3rd run I cut my new best 60' with a 1.53.

Did you use an explorer rear? If so what length axles did you order?

I built a 8.8 using the mustang housing, just finished that a month or two ago. Car ran very well with it so far. Stock length f body axles, stock mounts ect heck it even has abs and tcs still.
