looks amazing, how does it drive.
It drives like a totally different car.

The stock turbo is so small that it spools up almost instantly, making great low end torque, but not a lot of usable power on the high end. With the P1 kit I would hit peak boost by 3000rpm and then taper off toward redline. Now with the new turbo setup it starts spooling around 3500 and peak boost hits between 4000-4500. The lag is very noticeable, and takes some getting used to, but once that boost hits, it feels like your in a giant slingshot. It's a blast to say the least. Overall there's no doubt the car feels MUCH faster.

Maybe is missed it but did you dyno yet?
No dyno yet, just did the install this weekend. The closest shop with a dyno is 100 miles away, so it'll be a while before I can get on one.

Self install or shop? Time it took?
Self installed with help from friends. It took well over 12 hours, but that was because we hit a few snags, had to go to the parts store, etc. And I was installing the intercooler as well not just the turbo kit.

Love the car, man! Perfect stance, great wheel choice, and it even sounds good (although I still have to get used to these noises coming from a Mustang! LOL)

Cool video as well, but I think I have to say that the Crown Vic may have beaten you in the burnout competition! :D

And if you don't mind me asking, do you have any idea about how much you have spent on the mods so far?

Total spent on EVERYTHING I've done to the car is between $9-10k.

That includes wheels/tires, suspension, cosmetic mods, and performance mods. The total for power-adding mods is a little over $5k I think.

Still cheaper than the cheapest supercharger system for a GT.

Good deal! Thansk for sharing. I am thinking about adding an EB to our Mustang family and was just curious what I'd be looking at for future mods and what it'll cost me.
