We're going to start on the methanol kit today, due to UPS with holidays the ECS kit will be here Wednesday but still on track to get er done this week.

Oh and insurance-wise, I just switched to Heacoc Classic insurance. Dropped my premium almost $1600 over Geico, and I'm insured for $68000 assessed value like Jaime said from my supercharger to my Weld's. However, this is secondary insurance you need to prove you have a primary driver car.

Oh and Birm it's FSP !!! It should have been FPS but that's another story of Matt not paying attention to when he registered the name!

- Matt

Bah.. My bad. I typed it on memory lol, for some reason FPS was in my head

They know what im talking about lol

I think you will be man! I'm thinking 820

. Matt knows the spec of my cam not sure how it matches up to yours but I was able to make 15.3lbs of boost.

Hope you got plans for the rear end and invest I'm better tires LOL

Birm · 12-31-2012, 05:08 PM

I got the DSS 1400 Axles, I am hoping that and a future Driveshaft will do the trick, rather not get a full 9"

Depends on what your gonna do I guess. Doug told me trying to launch my car with the stock diff it's more than likely going to blow lol. My .02 is plan for one in the future haha.

DSS Hammerhead is a nice piece as well. Les powerloss and it weighs considerably less I think

Matt @ FSP · 12-31-2012, 05:13 PM

If you keep the sticky tires off, do the axles and driveshaft you should be good for a bit. When we put my drag pack on and go for the time-shot I make no warranties about the stock rearend

Vanq: We won't make that kind of boost down here, you have something called "cool" weather up there LOL. It's just hot, hotter, and stupid hot down here mostly. Although we have been catching some 45-50* nights now.

Ah on our Mustang dyno I am not anticipating seeing anything with a 8 in front of it. We have a baseline of the vehicle so we'll know the HP/TQ improvements though!

Ill look into it, thanks brother. My car wont see the track much as its my DD and I am pulled away quite a bit due to my job. But if and WHEN I do bust it, a 9" from DSS will where I go

Lucky for me we will be on the Dyno in the winter lol. I will be happy as long as it is considerable improvment and no loss in driveability

Hence the reason I went with you and the ECS vs' the much cheaper maggie

Chris82xx · 12-31-2012, 05:46 PM

You'll be happy no matter what. You have a lot of supporting mods. The only thing that may hold you back is the fuel system. A BAP is great, but sometimes you'll feel when the car is starving for more fuel. Matt knows what he's doing so you'll be fine. You'll def. be somewhere in the 700+ range, at least on a Mustang dyno, more if it was a Dynojet. Just make sure you find a place to get your meth at. You'll go through it quickly.

ZL1 Pump is going in as well

And I called around yesterday and got a Meth-lab (

) within minutes of my house

I cant wait!

Chris82xx · 12-31-2012, 06:07 PM

You're good to go then.

Jayrcr3 · 12-31-2012, 06:20 PM

On the stock tires that thing will be nasty. My cammed/whipple makes 650 at the tires and will break them loose at 40. Should be a fun driver for sure. I wish I knew someone local with a centri so I could feel the difference in power delivery.

Call Andy @ ADM and get his FPCM, or the ZL1 pump is a waste of money. My Z pump is falling into the upper 40's at my power level even with the BAP. Your meth will help alleviate some of that problem though.

I hope not but I've talked to Andy, so if the KB Bap doesn't hold I will absolutely do the FPCM.

Hopefully I won't need to though

Jayrcr3 · 12-31-2012, 07:24 PM

The cenri blower and meth may be okay. 2ss-rs matt was having the same problem as I am. He installed the FPCM from Andy and he now holds 63psi. I called Andy the other day to order it, but no one answered. I'll catch him the end of this week and get it on its way. Keep us updated. You will have a permanent perma grin. Lol

OP, you'll be happy with your decision; ECS has a great kit, and it delivers great results.

I guess Matt's ok, too

Paul...

Birm · 12-31-2012, 08:23 PM

Thanks Paul, I am looking forward to it!

And I suppose Matt will do.. lol
