VMP Loki Kit $6999

Lets see what I run at Atco with the canned tune, then we can decide what’s next, I’d like to go 10.80 full weight on 93

I’d be happy there, then possibly a ice tank to see if a colder charge would be worth a teeny bit.

Then I’d just leave it alone until my warranty is done (30 months) and either tune it or trade in for a used GT500

I dont have the luxury of Atco but man a used or hell new no ADM base GT500 is looking good to me LOL.....had a freakn rat eat a knock sensor harness while I got my new shop put in, so JUST when I get the car balanced like i envisioned, it goes back in the shop to have the blower removed Monday!!! And daughter will have her baby any minute been a highly stressful week.....
What's crazy is 5 vehicles in a line while the pad and shop done...and the rodent went past all them and ate the 1 wire I couldnt reach haha...found it with my bore scope.....SMH....

I am in the least concerned about heatsoak on the street. It is most certainly not going to heatsoak so badly in stop & go traffic to prevent the car from keeping up with that traffic.

Roll racing back to back on the street? That is a good way to lose one's license, end up in jail and have hellacious insurance premiums. That is not something I do.

All of this incessant blather about heatsoak is based on reports about the P1 Roush. P2 has some important improvements. While the design is still not optimal, we really don't know yet how bad it is going to be.

What is different on the p2? did they add a larger heat exchanger?

Yes and they tweeked the tune, I honestly bought the kit because of all the big names it has the best drivability of all the canned kits to date

P2 has a larger heat exchanger and the tune makes the fans run much more. The pump can also run with the engine off under some conditions.

Mine has better cooling than yours and whipple and DOES heat soak in traffic eventually and does not cool down to pre soak temps, it does after being shut off hot for 20 mins hood down in summer as well.....sure it will keep up with traffic I obviously meant going on a jaunt at WOT when the road opens up but hey if you never speed on the street you dont....
You will be fine if its just track and you have plenty of time to cool off between rounds....
I been street racing for 30 years and it still happens though I dont go looking for it, so I cant really relate to not....
It's not really blather till there is empirical data to prove the changes cured the inferior design yet or not I certainly hope it has....I think the blather may stem for historical data and all PD blowers moving away from its design vs bandaiding it.....

You two should be a great resource for how well it works!!

I'll say this 60ftlbs or torque imho is impressive....the kit is up there respectable now
Makes me want to upgrade my HE and/resevoir.....

And how many engine failures have you had? Did you like those failures just fine, too?

Now you do, 2 engines ago u didn’t
Now u know why I bought a Roush

Thank GOD EB paid, I really felt bad for u, I’m glad your happy with the car now

Engine failures, they cant help it the engine is a piece of shit. Each one I had trouble getting an allocation for because each batch made be literally sells out in days. For instance this last engine on a Friday they had 10 by the following monday 4 by wed none....these things are popping bone stock at a staggering rate when you dig in, sample and get to know some techs....

However your right Roush is slow and Edelbrock tries to give you to much but they spent over 20k making it right...in the end I lowered the boost and have a superior product I'm happy with. 14psi is to much, I applaud them for trying though....took me a while to put the blame where it goes....Patriot seen with his 3.75 tune the EB is just about right....

If I'm being truthful and not argumentative my cats are why my engines failed though ;) its absolutely not the tune its fine....
