Turbo Mike's 2007 Mustang GT Turbo Powered
Just got some pics from Tyler at Turbonetics and the kit looks awesome! I cant wait to get my hands on it. They are currently testing some other wheels and compressors and he said the 07 was responding very nice to the boost. Hopefully I will have some Dyno Sheets in the next week or so.
Let me know what you think... Later, Mike |

I'm sure the delivery driver knows how it runs, ask him!
Dana Carvey in "Moving" comes to mind.

well it is here. Just picked it up this am and drove it to work. Was a fun trip... I think i am going to get Justing from (www.vmptuning.com) to work his magic on it to see what we can pull out of it. I believe they crippled the car for the shipping and they provided me with another tuner that had the turbo tune in it and when i uploaded that one... omg... i will have pics up this afternoon...

shes home!!!
Picked up my car this morning and just got back in from a drive. I have to learn to drive the car all over again!!! hehe.. it is a blast to drive and Turbonetics (www.turboneticsinc.com) did a freaking awesome job!!! The car idles like it is completely stock and drives great! Especially when you nail the gas. I drove it around for about 10 minutes with the Traction control on then I took it off... you could hear the tires breaking loose almost all the way through second gear and first is out of control... On the highway i reset the mpg computer and when i got to the end of the highway it said i was getting like 20mpg! WTF!!! I LOVE IT! hehe... the car is in the same shape as when i dropped it off. I think they put a whopping 20 miles on it while they had it... the hot side is completely wrapped and when you pop the hood it is just warm... not even like the 89 stang... after driving for 30 minutes you cant even feel heat on the hood by where the turbo is...
Here are a few pics i took of it in my drive way... |

Oh OK, I thought that might have been the IAT sensor.
