We will be further testing the twin screw on our own test vechicle with proper mods (exhaust, clutch). This way we will 1. work out the final problems 2. Produce our own dyno numbers
5 brand new 1200ax have been ordered from PSE and should be at our shop in 2 weeks time.

Nope
They're not including injectors or sparkplugs as a part of the kit. And if you read through I think you'll find they're charging you for the tune as well. It's all broken down in one of the threads on this forum.

The kit is indeed a complete bolt on affair. As for what you get with the kit depends on what you already may have or your ambitions, which in return will affect your final price out the door. It all depends on the customer's demands and desires.

If they don't include injectors or plugs how are they going to include the tune? You can't run that kit on the stockers.

Anybody get one of these kits installed yet (other than the OP of course) and seen how it performs in the real world? Too many pages in the thread to read it all. I'm guessing it would put a good driver in the 13-13.5 range, but is there any real numbers yet?

I laid down 272whp on a really low rating Mustang Dyno and still had a lot more tuning to go. I just had some small issues I wanted to work out first before progressing any further since I was a test bed for the kit. The kit is currently under redesign, so stay tuned.

I disagree. With a good driver, exhaust, intake, and blower swap with good traction should yield 12 second passes. I run 13.6 on stage II pulley and supporting mods. With the blower swap and supporting mods no reason the car should not run mid to high 12s. I honestly think I'll be in the 12s with my DRs on and all my new mods I got now. Can't wait to see one of these swapped blower balts run on the track.

Hey does anyone know the updates on the intaker manifold Rebel was looking into? I think I remember a thread about rebel looking into getting a better intake manifold made for the 2.0 that would give a great boost to the TS's HP and TQ numbers by making the intake manifold flow better. They said they could use a larger pully, and a tune and you'd get even more HP out of it. Any update on this? I know I'd buy all of this at one time.

The pulley that comes with the kit is the smallest you can put on the blower if I remember correctly. I'm not sure on the intake manifold as I don't think there was enough demand for it. The kit is looking like it should be finished with the redesign in hoprfully a months time max. They are awaiting the new blowers to arrive, and then do some testing or the redesigned parts. After that we should be back in business!

Rebel aught to look into getting custom forged rotors for the TS that way we could run a smaller pulley. I realize it would be expensive, if they dont want to mass produce them then have custom orders. Keep the blower the same just make it possible for people trying to make more power have the option of buying better rotors for the TS, so the thing can spin faster. This is the main reason why we can only run a 2.8-2.9 pulley.

I want one... will pre-order if I have to. Make enough money to buy one... just want to see the numbers. Before I change my mind and go custom turbo (which the parts are ready to be ordered... just waiting on the numbers for this cos I'd really like to stay with a SC)
Kinda been getting ready for it... went with a full 3inch exhaust front to back with no cats for this, which is already fine if I change my mind and go turbo... so I hope I didn't jump too soon. Installing stage II axles on Friday... due to a mishap... so thats in place... gonna do the spec stage III+ clutch flywheel to support the extra juice (not like I dont already need it for my intense stage V) and then full internals and a nuetral balance crankshaft and a 50shot NOS maybe (whoknows)....
WAITING ON SOME NUMBERS.... the suspense is killing me!
And I want to be able to run a smaller pulley than 2.8ish (SMALLER PULLEY PLEASE) make it happen!!!!!!!!!

Rebel is busy. It's a lot of work for two guys to manage. They'll get this stuff out when it's ready, and hopefully not until then. I'd rather not have something break after they send it to me. As long as they keep feeding me the info (someone who's already paid) that's fine.

its funny how 17 year olds with 20 thousand dollar cars suddenly become ********. Stuff takes time to make perfect, i would love to see any noob on this site front the money for such a project, and have enough expertise to finish.
look at the almost 2 year ordeal victory red ss is going through....there is no way in theory it should take that long, but the people he chose to do his build at doing it as fas tas they can making sure its done right.
