I am saeriously thinking about sending the car back at the end of the year. Mark was telling me I just need to get sleeves and upgrade the turbos and I could get in the 700 club.

I thought you can make over 700 with the standard Greddy kit. You should be able to make more than the PE kit I would assume.

If you sell yours for $450 it will only be like $200 out of your pockets. That's what I did with my 550's.

The FCON can scale bigger injectors unlike the Unichip and EU so don't worry about that.

Alright bastard, you talked me into it!

I'm going with the FCON, breather tank/cooling mods, and maybe injectors next Saturday. I have 650's though, so I think I'll be alright for ~600whp. I'm not going for 700+ like you, you're just crazy!

Mark doesn't like to take the injectors to far so with 650 he'll recommend like 520whp. Talk to him and then make a decision. Good luck! I can't wait to see your results.

Thanks, neither can I. I'm so excited, but hesitant at the same time about shelling out about as much as it would cost to build a new short block on just engine management. But then again, what good is all this money I dumped into a twin turbo kit and built long block if I can't really push it as far as I want to safely?

your thinking all wrong. you said be thinking with all this damn money I have invested I am not running a standalone. EMS and tuning are so important. You will see what I mean when you drive the car.......Feels so different.

600rwhp Nice numbers

Is this true? If so, I'd be making like 638whp on a Dynojet. There's no way, not on 91 octane. I guess I'll find out tomorrow, since I'm going to dyno on a Dynojet

edit: Or, are you supposed to multiply your UNcorrected numbers by 1.17?

I don't think a dyno pack reads as low as a dyno dynamics or mustang dynos.

Okay. Well we'll find out tomorrow, conditions should be pretty close, maybe a few degrees cooler though.

It depends on how the DynoDynamics dyno is setup. Most shops factor in the DynoJet correction, or else the DynoDynamics raw numbers reads dissappointingly low.
