If it were my choice, I most definitely would've keyed and pinned those parts, but I obtained the engine already built from a friend for a steal. I can't complain too much though. We'll see what it can do.

Thanks! The cost of the manifold and downpipe for the Borg Warner is the only thing holding me up, because I know it'll be quite a bit more than a cast manifold and pre-made downpipe.
As for the headstuds and taking the head off, I may get the cams pinned, but I'm undecided on that yet. I...
Figured I'd give a little update. I went back to the drag strip a couple weeks ago and ended up with another 12.0, but this time I trapped 118. My car felt sloppy so I got under and looked. My AWR rmm bushing is trashed. I'm thinking that's the culprit for my bad 60' time (1.88). The car...
That's not bad news! Haha. I'm glad to hear that you're pushing for faster times. I'm just limited by the turbo right now. Some QTP's and a new axle with some seat time should net me mid to low(ish) 11's. I'm planning for 10's on the new setup, but that won't be on for a couple months.

Haha, I hopefully will! I just need some good tires and axle. This was on winter 205's. I also have 200whp less than you.

Well,
I went to the track yesterday. First run out I cracked off a 12.07 @ 116 on my snow tires.
That ended up being the best run of the day because of this.
Snapped my 500hp DSS driver rear axle on launch. Hopefully will be back sometime with some slicks and a good axle for some 11's.
Pretty mild update.
Got the 6th port installed rather trouble free.
Went to IMW in Carlisle, PA and used their Mustang dyno.
Put down 319/295 on stock fueling and 93.
Then I went straight from the dyno to Will (purple drank) to get road tuned for aux fuel. He dialed it in on 93 with...
Update:
6th port is here.
I'm installing everything this coming weekend, including:
6th port kit
Tial mvr (w/18.85psi spring pressure)
Hood dump
3.5 bar MAP
tr8 core
And get a purple drank base map
Also, I put some new wheels on it to spruce it up a bit.
Going for broke on this poor...
Hi All!
Glad to be a part of this new community. I currently own a 2006 speed 6 GT (leather, nav, sunroof, etc) with 134k miles. I bought it in july of 2012 with 74k miles on it. It's been a long journey to this point, but I'm happy with where it's headed.
Let's start with the beginnings...
