Yes this is on 92 Shell. And if there was one thing that I could tell before getting tuned was that it definitely is more responsive in terms of spool. It also sounds exactly like all of the other FP turbo wheels do with this housing.

They are posted now. It was 335 I believe, but I also have a Magnus SMIM and not the V5. Thanks I love the response!

Hum, changing the manifold could easily account for the observed differences in spool and makes the change in power less concrete as well.

$200 for 20 HP is a bargain, so I'd love that to be the case.

I probably have the unported to ported hotside stuff. I didnt label any of that though so its more or less impossible to tell.

White---- both of these pulls made more corrected (367 to 385) as the conditions were very close. I will grab that from the dyno if I get a chance tomorrow. With exactly one exception I havent seen "power" increases from a ported anything exhaust I have only seen a decreased propensity to knock. That might seem like the same thing but its not. The gains I saw from a header or port job, where I could firmly say that made more power exactly once, was a Full Race header. On e85 there is no advantage on a stock frame turbo since the exhaust gas dynamics are so much different than pumpgas.

Thats a good explanation Aaron thanks, this is good though kinda leaves a bit more safety room for the car.

wshih thanks for the info, sounds good for $200.
