Dude I'm sure you are making more then 500rwhp. Just put it this way I have a mod motor basicly just like a 03 cobra motor with a single 76mm on it and at 15psi. I was putting down 675rwhp 625rwtq thru a 6spd. So I'm sure with a bigger motor and bigger turbo you are probably puttting out more then that.

at the most probably 550....may have a bigger motor but my heads dont flow as well stock vs. stock 4v head's...they just have stiffer springs other than that they have never been touched....loosing alot of power through the stall and old *** turbo 350 automatic transmission....but who knows....guess i need to get it dynoed so i really know what it has

No I'm serious. Look at any other thread here with the words "Ford" "Mustang" "Cobra" etc and you'll see the usual crowd picking the OP or OPs story/video apart in a ultimate "shoulda, coulda woulda" tirade. No doubt they will now come in to attack me, but seriously, they are usually the first 5 posts under the OP in a "xxx vs Mustang" thread.


OP nice vid. Crazy fast TA.
His TA is a fast TA, no doubt about it. It would be the same if a fast Stang beat an F-body. Obviously you're butthurt from a past SR&K experience. It's okay, champ, the big bad bullies won't come out to get you. How pathetic.

You must have me confused with someone who doesnt actually back their **** up with videos and has far less street cred. Dont take me for some kid posting a written story about taking down a clapped out gutted old news Fox. My **** speaks for itself. Wheres yours? Oh thats right. No videos from the Ford trolls. No proof, no substance, nothing other than tired *** rhetoric. Pathetic is you weak *** Ford trolls who showed up in the last couple months and post nowhere else other than the SR&K to stir **** up.

He's being a Ford troll, you're being a GM troll. What's the difference?

Street cred? Seriously? That's so gangsta. On a serious note, just let it go.

That's pretty much what I was thinking. His dyno numbers won't be crazy high because of the trans, but he's making a ton of power.
I'd completely believe 650rwhp through the automatic.

We just had my friends TA on our dyno and he was running a 78mm front mount turbo as well.
Now he is a built LS1, forged rods and pistons, elderbrock heads worked over by Lingenfelter, but still a LS1 intake, I could kick him I tell ya lol.

Now his gage was reading like 15-16 psi but when we was looking at it through the laptop the MAP sensor was only reading 11psi. He managed to put down 604 on the dyno through a T56 and 9in.
I really feel through that his intake is holding him back but his car does feel fast when riding in it, and the turbo sounds nasty.
I raced him one time last year and once his turbo was spooled and he passed me it sound like a jet going by, kind of hurts your ears a bit lol.

Same here. I just put a TH400 in my car and will have it on the rollers pretty soon. I'll see how much of a loss I will have but I'm sure it will a hell of a lot faster...
