hey guys!
sorry it's a short hectic week!
a couple have been shipped (one or two privately for testing) and another in conjunction with another shop on the West Coast
So you should have details this week.
I will extend the free shipping offer (like we are doing for the holidays) on the turbo for people once the results are posted if you want to place an order, up until the 15th of january!
cheers

Thanks again Chad, you're the man! 
Turbo is on the car, just have to hook up the DP, UICP, and stuff, and she'll be running again
I forgot to take any photos in my excited haste, though
but I will have plenty of datalogs and dyno results from Cobb Tuning after I get back from xmas break.

OK, here is my initial feedback.
First off, the compressor is WAY quieter than stock. A sign of a much more efficient compressor wheel, usually. Being billet machined, I'm sure it's a very advanced design.
Spool is roughly 500 rpm later than stock. I see full spool around 3600 rpm in 4th and around 3200 in 5th. Not bad IMO.
I'm able to hold 26-27 psi from 4000 to 7500 rpm no problem, using only 55% WGDC... load used to be ~195 at 7000 rpm, it's now ~240. This is roughly a 23% gain in power.
The dyno function in EvoScan says I'm making about 350 WHP uncorrected currently at 4500 ft... so about 405 WHP corrected!
I'm pleased so far. Tomorrow I put in my additional inline fuel pump from AMS, and put on my larger methanol nozzle! I can't wait *stoked*

If you can get some VDR (Virtual Dyno Room) numbers that would be great too!

Basically it just uses time in seconds vs RPM to plot out HP and torque curves with various adjustments based on tire diamter, weight, weather and dyno correction factor. I've been using the Mustang average because it ended up being closest to what I get for Dyno numbers and adding 30% to estimate crank HP works really well for me. My 1/4 performance has been within 1 mph of it's estimates that way so it's been a good indicator.
That turbo sounds promising so far!
