Have a customers twin turbo 03 Cobra on the dyno right now. Last pull on pump gas and 16# made 723hp and 610 tq. We will crank the boost up in a bit, but I think the maf will run out....

Those are really good numbers Greg. Good Job

Thanks... we will have to do the race tune another day. The intake pipe kept blowing off every time at 5k rpms and around 800hp. I will put the vid up later...

very impressive especially for a boost level that isn't insanely high.

Still has the FRPS on the fuel rail so I doubt its return fuel.

I hate the word "built" when someone asks whats the motor have lol I like details like is it stainless steel rings, plasma moly rings, what pistons, rods, C/C

Its hard to ask greg though to remember everyones car hahaha probably has like 10 cars his putting in motors in right now. Shop is ALWAYS packed when I go over.

So I tuned Brandons today, car made 630/610 on 16#. Tried to bump the boost up but it pegged the dual pumps at 720/700 tq. He will be upgrading to the triple pump/Fore hat along with throwing a Sullivan intake on. We compared his graph to another customers with the Sullivan intake and the Sullivan made 125 more peak hp on the same boost, losing minimal down low. Brandon will get the videos up later, even with 2 guys in the trunk the tires still spun lol

Some decide to, but most put it off until the HP goal is hit.
