Ok as promised I will discuss a little bit of custom piping I did in my setup...here's what my setup looks like:

All my piping has the stock diameter until the pipe that leads to the MAF tube, which is a 3"-3.5" reducer pipe...

SO, after that pipe is the Threadstone 3.5" maf tube, them I needed a reducer silicone hose from 3.5" to 3" to fit the 3.5" maf tube with the stock vortech 3" tube that leads to the throttle body, so for the silicone reducer I used...

...THE SILICONE HOSE FROM THE INJEN INTAKE KIT AGAIN! This time I cut out the reducer part at the end of the hose...

Stock MAF tube was too small to use the uprev MAF GT (maxing out MAF), which why I switched to the Threadstone 3.5" MAF tube...stock is 2.75"...

I wouldn't have had to this if I kept using the HPX MAF...

holy crap, how did you fit a 3" pipe behind the blower coming up from the intercooler? I barely could fit that smashed version vortech supplies and i think it was like 2" or something.

Couple questions

1. Do you have a built block?

2. Do yo u have any head work like cams porting?

3. What pulley size and cog belt did you use with your 928 impeller to get 500whp?

I have v2 with cosworth manifold, cosworth fuel rail, 600cc injectors. Walbro 255, 2.87 pulley with stock maf. I own a uprev maf gt but didn't need with my setup. I dynoed 355whp and 343wtq on an wad mustang dyno

I just wondering what your did to make 500whp cuz that is my goal on a mustang dyno.

But anyways congrats on those numbers.....

Now that is a great achievement! Well done buddy, never thought our V2 is capable of reaching those levels

Just blew my blower and I guess it's time for a proper rebuild with an upgrade

1. Yes

2. Yes, head porting, 3 angle valve job and S7R cams (I have a revup)

3. My 500whp dynojet setup had:

2.75 Jackshaft, 30/34 cog setup, and 6.125 Crank pulley (Fluidampr), spinning the 928 impeller up to about ~63k rpm

Was this done on a v3 blower?

Is this the most power anyone has made from a VQ block and that particular blower?

It was done on a modified V2 blower (impeller was changed to a 928 Motorsports Impeller)

I think so, if not #1, #2. Another guy hit 600 too!

Those blowers, with the 928 impeller, are a beast!

Stock v3 blowers are making simliar if not more power per psi. Looks as if Vortech is finally the affordable FI kit for VQs!


I love options...

Blew a headgasket due to some issues with my meth; I rebuilt the heads this time with Cosworth HR headgaskets (my original build had oem HR headgaskets)...still breaking in the engine...

I also changed to an even bigger crank pulley, from a Fluidampr to an ATI dampener; hence I'm also going to be changing the blower; although the 928 Impeller is rated to 60krpm (and I had been running it up to +70krpm to hit +600whp) the real limiting factor of the blower are the bearings, which are still rated to oem Vortech specs of 53krpm om the v2 SC trim...while I feel confident the Vortech v2 Sc trim upgraded with a 928 Impeller can handle +500whp @ 60krpm, I can't say the same for sustained runs at +600 whp @ +70krpm...

What blower you upgrading to? You going for the V2 TTrim or are you fixing up that YSI?
