Those are 2 manifold setups depending on your budget that you cannot go wrong with.. Sad to see skunk didnt do their homework testing their unit before releasing it to us and making us Beta testers..

That would definately skew the numbers, but for some vendors, that is their goal evidently.
Are you serious? Do you pay someone to insinuate this bull**** or do you make it up yourself? The highest horsepower ECUFlash Evo is equipped with an MAP Rev3 intake manifold and tuned by Kasey (formerly of Spoolnup Tuning) the latest addition to the MAP team

The car did run a 6.6 at 111 at a local 1/8mile! There is not a quarter mile track close. So that should be a low 10sec pass or maybe even a high 9!

Well last i saw our street car ran 8.98 & 5.80 @ 123 mph in the 1/8th with 782whp on dynojet .. Buschur RS ran 125mph in the 1/8th with barely 700 on his MD.. Id say 12-14mph in only the 1/8th is quite a bit off pace for 770WHP on and MD.. Just my observation..

LOL, If i was buschur boy this would not be going on. The 6.6 at 111 pass was a very bad pass, i can send you a vid and you can hear it spinning the tires all the way in first gear plus Letting off the gas and getting back on it and still running 6.6. By the way this was done one lower boost setting too.

Hopefully we will see what she does on the MAP Dynojet in the near future All I can say is you obviously have some talented drivers in some very light chassis' lol. The MAP talon barely squeezed a 9.9 @ 149 a few years back with over 750whp on a DJ. There are so many factors that come into play with making a good pass at the drag strip...

Sorry man just my observation that the MPH doesnt add up.. Just my personal belief that i dont buy ANY record breaking Mustang dyno #'s without a slip to back it up or atleast close.. 14 MPH in the 1/8 is missing 150-200hp somewhere.. Not to mention BR car made under 700on the mustang there.. so 70 more HP + 14mph missing just doesnt add up to me personally..

You cant discredit the #'s on the DJ man.. The correctioon factor is clearly posted to compare.. Good luck!! Maybe youll make me eat my words..

Back on topic of the Skunk That Stunk!!!LOL

This car would be only around 650 on BR dyno, and like i said before low boost, heavy car, no traction 6.6 where the results, this pass was not done running 762hp. Maybe next project for you guys should be a full weight SSL evo and not upgrading it with light weight parts, let see how fast you will go on that.

If you chose to make your car heavy then that's your fault. I have never seen someone try to badmouth someone for making a good decision before. We are talking about things like light weight mustache bars...it's not like the cars are tube frame or anything

lol i dont have the money like these shops do to go out and buy my self an RS to work on. Trust me they have a lot more then just a mustache bar in there cars to save weight. 700hp car going 8s, i bet that thing weights a lot less then everyone thinks it does.
