Congrats...welcome to the club! You should reconsider the cam choice in your signature. 272's are the way to go. Ask Boostfed what he thinks about his!

Yeah, trust me...I've thought long and hard about the perfect cam setup. In the end I just decided to go with a milder setup for now until I upgrade the turbo and other things in a few years. I wanted the 264s since they offer a good lower and middle range compared to the 272s, but only sacrefice a little bit up top. I actuall read through every thread I could find comparing cams, and I saw one that had dyno results that showed that the 264s and 272s gave almost identical performance gains, and looked through the registry to find the setup that I'd be running and saw someone put down 340whp on a mustang dyno with the 264s, and for the summer at least, that's good enough for me

if u have the OEM tires, be very careful about taking it out in the snow... get used to the car's capabilities before you try power sliding, etc...just a word of caution.

Also what EMS are you planning on with the 264s. Where u getting tuned....enjoy.

They're not the Yokos, they're actually the tires that Ryan had on the car for the winter...they gripped really well in the wet and snow actually, but next week I'm ordering some Falken Ziex 512s

I'm planning on having the ECU sent back to Dynoflash (if I can get ahold of them) to have it reflashed once the cams are in. Then, hopefully, I'll catch him on one of his trips somewhere to have it custom tuned. Later on down the road I'll go with the AEM system.

Yeah - we got an inch of snow yesterday, some places in MI got almost a foot. It's rediculous. On last Wednesday it was 82*...Sunday, 4 days later, it was 32*.

How does your car idle with the Turbo XS BOV. Read a few different threads about the idle reving and not being steady with this BOV. Thanks.
