Are people not reading that the quote from LUND Was EVO was pushing the car OVER the quoted 850rwhp safe zone?
Evolution GT500 goes boom?

go tell that to MMR

Well not really, go tell the machine shop that does MMR's motors. None of the machining is done in house, don't believe the hype.
Since we are buying a new house, the wife made a compromise. "If you want to buy your Kenne Bell from Van, go ahead." I need to close on the house asap :lol1:
Then.... Tell that to MMR's machine shop. :rolling:
EVO did state they had two '13's. One to push the limits and one to test part combo's.
None of the machining is done in house. I went over this with them when looking for a motor. The blocks are sent out for boring, honing, sleeving etc. It was a reason I went L&M, too many hands in the pot.

Too much speculation, not enough facts, less wait and see what evo says
Come on Evo, damn! Just spill the beans. You got all these guys in here arguing like a bunch of schoolgirls.
Evo where are you come out to play
bravo, a pat on the back for you! fantastic job at missing the point!
Guys,
There is 2 comments I have about any aftermarket blowers. If you guys are going to go 3.6 KB, 3.3 Vortech, or 4.0 Whip, the motor isnt going to be safe w the internals.
And to do a 2.3 or 2.8 blower, there isnt much gain because of the efficiency of the TVS eaton.
I think the rods are SLIGHTLY different, I was told by a guy by me that builds lots of mod motors that they were marginally better this Im not certain of though.
Do the bolt ons guys, tune, TB, X or H pipe, Headers, Etc. That should net you about 700-725 whp which SHOULD in most cases be within the realm of reliability.
Is that not enough for most of you guys??
If you are doing a big blower or NO2 then start building a motor now.
If you want a drag car that goes 9s. Buy a fox body w a C4 and a windsor w a turbo or spray for 15 grand.

Lund is King for GT500 and other ford product tunes.
The guy has it down.
IF you break your motor w a lund tune its because a mechanical failure NOT ever the tune.
no the point was once again you state info that you have zero knowledge of. I question if you even own a mustang. Show us your builds. You chime in with your internet knowledge all the time. You state so confident "go tell that to MMR". Guess what smart guy they don't do their own machining. I would expect you with all that you have contributed to the GT500 community to know such info. After all how many built motors have you done for your car? Oh wait.....
Bull,
Most of the people that are know everythings about the GT500 on this site, are seeming to all not even have one. Some on this thread especially. LOL

He and I have a history of arguing. He resites what he's read and I ask to see what he's driving. When I see pics of an actual car that he's built I will layoff him a bit. It's like me going on a GT-R board and telling the actual owners of the cars about their car. It gets old.
