I've been running just like that (3" intake, stock MAF, recirc BOV) for about a year now. Works great.

Can't wait to see the results on this one. I'm especially curious to see at what RPM midwestmonster will see full boost in 3rd gear.

Hey man, I'm about 2 hours south of AMS, where are you located? I'd really be intersted in taking a look at your setup.

If you want a really close look I'll be in Chicago getting mine installed/tuned on 15/16 August.

**Updtate**

Got tuned last thursday, and ran into problems with alky kit pump overheating due to how hot is was outside!!! Only safe thing to do was to do a safe pump gas tune for 22psi on straight 93 oct. Put down 414 awhp 330 awtq. The power curve is unbelieve. Car just pulls all the way to redline. No drop off like the stock turbo. Going to go back and get a race gas tune later this summer. I'm pretty much done with the whole alky thing till I can work in a safety. Not worth the risk.

A HUGE THANK YOU to Martin for putting in the time to tune the car. Didn't leave the shop until after 10pm!!!!!!!! How many shops would do that? Car runs flawlessly. Definately recommend this kit and AMS to everyone. Thanks again guys!!

Very nice numbers on pump gas, how is the spool compared to the stocker and is there anyway to post the dynosheet? Can't wait to install mine and tune on meth.

Another happy 50 trim owner, congrats. Yes I am the man who hit 497 with methanol! Spool up is good, I hit full boost by about 3700-3800 rpms. I will have new numbers soon as I am getting a 2.3 AMS stroker motor installed.

Good NUmbers with no methanol!!!

Good Luck

What's up man! I saw your car at AMS last week. Looks great. My only disappointment was the alky kit not cooperating. I was one of two cars that experienced this problem. Kinda scary. Martin told me I can expect close to 500 on race gas, so I need to make an appointment for that.

I'll post the sheet up tomorrow. Forgot to bring it to work to scan. Spool up is great. Car just hits hard. Unlike the stock turbo, the horsepower and torque don't just peak. Torque stays flat until 7500 rpms and horsepower just keeps on climbing. Comparing curves on the two turbos is night and day.

That'd be sweet if I could, I might just have to do that.

Would it be possible for you to ask Chris @ AMS to either post the dyno runfile or e-mail it to you? I'd like to compare it to my AMS 50 trim setup.

nice numbers. Can I ask how you lost 30 wtq going from a stock turbo to a 50 trim? can you tell a difference from the loss of tq? I am just curious. I am trying to learn as much as possible.
