I have another from the back of the car I can try to capture in the next day or so....was GREAT seeing him down there! Now, we gotta find a way to get him to UP THE BOOST :)

I think I just creamed my pants!...that's friggin awesome! Best of luck to Yabbaman, hopefully the reliability in the long run will be good enough for us to use a similar setup. I think it's time to empty out my bank account ;)
BTW, that engine somehow looks like it's moved, I still cant get over it!

Best dyno of the 3 was 218 at 5psi boost. Not too bad :)
218 to the wheels.....at only 5psi???
Holy crap....you wouldn't want to trade cars, would you?

yeah, i showed up that day as he started his run, and you could hear the turbo out in the parking lot... i walked with great haste over to the dyno... :)
i also suggested more-than-once™ that afternoon that he up the boost, but he has his plans and they are sound, so i'll sit back and watch him do his thing...
bigprobe, i don't suppose you got one of my runs on tape? i've haven't actually heard my car accelerate from the outside since i did the SVT stuff and gutted the precats... if not, or you don't feel like cap'ing it, that's cool... just mostly curiosity...

Man I still love Probes. Best part was the piece of paper in tthe 2nd video, when it blew away from the exhaust.

I like it. It was my favorite car before the cougar. Now #5. I was still jealous of my brother when he got one 6 years ago.
