Car is moving man, you should be in the 10's no problem with a little more work! Love the progression!
Thanks Tony, Ill Keep on Truckin with it. Turbo has been flawless by the way.

Illeagle : I wont lie to you or anyone for that matter, I cant really talk about anything to do with Lunds Tune, im sorry . I will tell you that on E85 you can get quite aggressive though , you will get your Mid 11 second car quite easily with this Turbo !!!

Understandable. I am ready for my tuner to really turn it up and get more aggressive with it. How are you liking your converter? It seems to really match this turbo well.

We keep picking at it. Im now confident I can get the car into the 10s with a better set of tires and a few more tweaks on the tune from Lund. I tried leaving at more boost to improve and it blew the tires off to a 2.0 60 ft time.
A few pictures as well as I was told by a friend that he heard rumors that my car does not have a stock engine in it. And a picture of my fully loaded 3740 lb. 15' PP Ecoboost as its raced.
Nice time and mph. Definitely got that thing moving well:clap2:

Thank You. I have the BMR cradle lockouts, the BMR tie rods, and the UPR wishbone lookin things. All the other suspension is stock PP. I need to buy shocks badly !!!! My tires are the Nitto NTO5R 285/40/18. I went 123 mph last night, but it was street night so I had to really walk into it. Im overly confident it will go into the 10s, probably need to put a better tire on it as well.

The car is still running great, still have the stock engine in the car. I have tried a few times to get into the 10s, but the Nitto NTO5R drag radial just isn't enough tire. Sorry Tony and Vargas Stage 2 Turbo owners, ill keep working at it !!! Next step is 17" M/T Drag Radials !!!

So close!!! Awesome! The car is running good looks like. We appreciate you out there putting our products to the test! Small update, twin scroll housing sample should be to us beginning / middle of Oct, then we will get it on the dyno, and we should have 50 of so in stock end of Oct. Mark we will get you one right away, any other stage 2 owners we will of course give you a great price on switching to a TS housing if you want one!

Looking forward to twin scroll results.
As are we! Look out for a very special promotional pricing on TS VTTS2 once we get the housings in. It will be our way of thanking the EBM community for the support. Also look out for an upcoming announcement of some very cool fuel system upgrades we will be releasing...:)

I can answer that. Mark is using the foot brake(at least he was last time I spoke with him about it). If he did have a transbrake in the car, and could hook, he would be well in the 10's already.

Once we get cooler weather here in California mark and Lund will have that Vargas stage 2 car in the 10s.... Crazy to think how simple of a setup he has.

Those M/T will definitely get that car into the 10s if he doesn't want to wait lol.

I agree. The turbo flat out performs anything in its price range, and much more expensive options as well. The only people saying different are haters trying to sell $5K+ turbo kits. Once the TS housings are done, people will have a choice of insane top end power that still spools as fast as the GTX2867, and makes more WHP, or the TS version that will take 500-600 rpm off spool, and stil make 450WHP up top. Best of all worlds coming soon for under $2K...:) VTTS2 FTW

I was doing so good not posting in this thread. But, people that have a Stick car, I'd ask for a 100% satisfaction or money back guarantee. If it's truely the that good, that shouldn't be to much to ask.

You can call me a hater if you like, I'm ok with that truth. I can honestly say, there is no comparison between a good $5k kit and a VS2.

I do not really understand your post, and why were you doing so good not posting here. Feel free to post any time, as for your statements. I 100% agree there is no comparison unless you like spending $3K for the same spool, and less power. Thanks for stopping by! :thumbsup:
