Wow - incredible results. I can't believe the owner made the plunge with an R! Exciting stuff

Interesting stuff. Never heard of upgrading valve springs for boost.. I wonder if its supposed to say the springs keep the valves closed..

Would a guy need to do anything to the frame, or rear end to handle that kind of power?

Veryy impressive but why were the runs only pulled to about 7200 rpm?

Thats a seriously expensive upgrade but those are ridiculous numbers. Will be interested to see how it holds up.

Hello,

With the un-loaded dyno and turbo size there is no need to turn any higher in the pull. We wanted to build a massive power curve that wakes up the lazy 350 engine.

I go by the script. "Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you should."

It's like dropping your trouble light and it burns REALLY bright for a short period then fails. This turbo makes me think of that.

are you saying the car doesnt make any more power above that? or it cant run above that?

Yes. when you put a lot pressure on the back of the valves it makes em wanna hang open or float. That's a bad thing when the piston intends to occupy the same space a few fractions of a second later.

Well I do not agree with this!

The car will never hook up down low with all that torque and if the power were to come on a later and maintain the factory redline of 8200 then then it might stand a chance to get a little traction since it will be moving at a higher speed and also maintain one of the best traits of this engine has and that is High RPMs.

I and many others do not find the engine lazy just not in its power band similar to a boosted car that is not in boost.

Not putting down what you are doing the numbers are very impressive but there is nothing special about a boosted engine that spins to only 7200 rpms.

The lazy 350 engine...yes, I see.
By no means do we mean lazy in a derogatory way. Many of our customers have asked if our turbo kit will fix the "lazyness" within their GT350. We have many turbo sizes, but the quick spool 55mm units give the largest gain and the most average power.

You are correct, the car will never hook with that torque. We simply have a dyno of a max effort setup. The beauty of a turbo setup is that with our E boost 2 we can program any curve desired. We can program the power to come on at a nice rate, and peak at 8000 if needed, or anywhere in between.

We have similar GT mustangs that run into the 8 second zone with simply upgraded axles and driveshaft.

We have seen no ill effects on the body. The factory hardened steel as held up very well.
