Hey Paul

Just wondering where the car was et wise when you smoked the 6 puck?

I think my car is guna be right around that hp level in a week or two and would just like some input on how long it may last.

We are aiming for 550whp on a Mustang dyno.

Modding is a blast until you blow a motor or 3k clutch and then realize what you could have done with all of that cash. One time I lost 6k in the stock market in one day it feels almost like that.
