TVS needs some supporting mods to keep it cool if you're going to turn it up and spin the little guy.

I trapped 3mph higher than a Ken B car with the same setup as I do just saying on less boost too and went faster ;)

So Ken does not use the Ngauge, does he only use the SCT X4?
I do not believe so. He told me when I signed up awhile back that he uses SCT so I bought it from him and never looked back. :headbang:

Alright cool! I will join.

What tuners are available?
VMP
Lund Racing
Palm Beach Dyno

I have experience with all (3). Very good experiences on several different TVS combos.

I currently use Ken Bjonnes @ PBD and could not be happier.

What pulley are you going with?

I have a 15% OD Lower Ring and use a 69mm, 66mm and 63mm upper pulley based on what mood I am in, or street vs track and dependant upon what wheels I have on the car. I usually rock around on the 69mm upper pulley.

What BAP are you using?


I use and prefer the VMP BAP.

What injectors are you using?

I used ID1000 until the car got into the 145-147mph trap range, now I run ID1300s.



Now that I have gone 8's with it, I am going with a new engine from Livernois Motorsports with more headflow, much more cam, and compression...and stronger.

Along with the new engine:

Mod VMP Gen 2 to fit KB 168mm Monoblade TB
Upgrade the JLT 123mm Intake to a JLT 155mm Intake tube.
Upgrade my current custom air filter to a JLT Spec Race Filter
Upgrade my 1-3/4" LT Headers to 2" LT Headers
Try an aftermarket converter
And a few other small things.

:cheers:

Does anyone know what size pulley is phase 1 (i think 85mm) is? How about phase 2? What is the smallest pulley one can swap to without upgrading injectors?

I do believe the 72mm pulley is pushed to the max with Roush stock injectors. Maybe someone else can chine in to verify.

Can you buy the 80mm on it's own anywhere? I've done a quick search to find used one, but that was it. Not many places to buy a new one. I did find the 79mm VMP though...

Ken B with pbdyno.com

Only person that I will let tune my car. He is my 3rd tuner on this car. I tried local, then Lund. I was very unsatisfied with both but Ken is at another level.
Do I have to go there?

I installed the phase 2 727 hp and I can tell you that the roush tune is so conservative that it gives me a p061b code and car goes limp. Called them several times, left messages cause they don't answer, emailed several times and still no contact with them. Car also hesitates slightly.
