SOTP meter difference was HUGE! It felt like a completely differnt car....like I slapped a little pink bunny under the hood because the tach just kept "going and going and going" LOL. It felt weird passing 6200RPMs and your couldnt "feel" ANY drop off in power. Felt like a freegin 4V. :nice:


And as far as the mail tunes, I would ONLY trust Tim @ MPH, and maybe M O D U L A R D E P O T :)rolleyes: darn censoring of competeing sites. Its not like stangnet dynotunes car, jeeze). Anywhere else and you dont know what you have, but you would still want to strap it to a dyno to, as Tim has told others, "collect your dyno #s". LOL

Mustangtuning's mail chip had my A/F @ 14-15 on the dyno :eek: . And I just had a few boltons lol....plenum and a K&N on the intake side, O/R X and CB for exhaust, and an electric WP for kicks. I dont think nailing that tune would be too hard, but apparently it was lol.


EDIT Steeda, hows the blower instal going?????


pretty good, my top got cut a few weeks ago and I wanted to get that taken care of before the blower went on, so last week the top replacement guy had it for 3 days. They started on it today and with it being a used kit we are looking over every part before it goes on, they idler pulley that he had looked a bit worn so we decided to order a new one instead of chancing it. gotta wait 3 days for that but if all else goes well i should have it back for monday. :D

shoot, if they were in stock I would order them now :)

haha..you shoulda ordered them a few days ago. Sold the last set a couple days ago. More are being done and should be ready in a few days....same with the stage 2's. Just so you know...if you order them online even when they are out of stock..you get put on a list so you will have a set when they are in stock.

what are good heads for the VT stage 1's?

If im not mistaken, VT reccomends getting some STG 2 cams with any aftermarket ported heads. The STG 2s really shine when the heads are opened up, and they will work good for DDing. But maybe they will chime in if im wrong....and VT sells some awsome heads.

A guy I know bought a long block from them, STG 2 heads, custom cams between stg 2 and stg 3, and a 284 forged motor with like 10-1 CR.....car puts down 330RWHP. Which is ALOT for any 2V.

Ya..I usually suggest the Stg 2 with ported heads..but it boils down to the customers preference for idle,tuning,etc.

Are there any sets ordered for the VT Stage 2's already?.. I'll be able to put my order in... as long as you don't take the money out until friday evening :D

So how much hp/tq can one expect from a VT stage II heads and V/T Stage II cams with longtube headers on an otherwise stock 2v 99+ engine? Im guessing around 310 to the wheels?

EDIT: Add a pretty good tune in there.. Dan from Realspeed in NY will be tuning the car on a mustang dyno.
