I think they have not solved the tuning issue yet on the 160mm TB (VMP). I would look at the VMP twin 67 or the KB 168 for now and wait until the bugs have been ironed out on the 160mm mono.

I sent my 160mm back last week. I will get the twin 67mm for now, then wait until all issues are resolved with the 160mm. My car is a rocket already with the stock TB and Gen 3 supergharger. Don't want to trade off any drivability for a few hp.

I was pretty much bone stock. I tried to do a dyno one time, but the dyno broke with my car on it. I figure 450-460 at the rear wheels before. I will do some datalogs, then do a dyno on it.

I think getting it to have good street manners is where they are being challenged with it.

Correct, they are still working on that tune..

You can see what I am talking about on this pick, on the right side of the supercharger. I ended up with a piece from the aluminum shaved off

A couple of install notes for any of you doing a Gen 3 install. I was really busy the last 3 or 4 days, so had minimal time to work on the car. Hardest part for me was the EGR valve. The bolts would just not line up. I tried a half dozen things. What finally worked was to unbolt the...

No built motor, stock 2010 motor. Mods include VMP gen 3, 2.8 pulley, 91 octane, VMP fuel pump booster, new plugs, 56# Ford injectors, 123mm JLT big air CAI, VMP custom tune. Currently using the stock OEM TB , as tuning for the 160mm monoblade is not yet available. Just finished install today...

Yup, all better now, did not plug in EGR valve. This things a rocket..

on second thought, might have found the issue..

So finally got my install done, but now I have two codes on the tune, and it's not running right. Here are the codes, any help with anything I might have missed would be appreciated: P012D and P0403

Awesome, thanks.

Wow, I thought it was just me. I will work on it some more tomorrow, hopefully I don't throw something at the poor car.

Yes, sorry. I know there was a wait on the tune for the 160mm one, and I think you were waiting on the hardware also..

I am having lots of trouble getting the EGR lined up with the steel hose in back of it, and on to the manifold on the other end. Since there are 3 places it tightens so, I can get two our of the three to work, but cannot for the life of me get all three done. Any help/tips would be appreciated...

Did you get the new tune for the 160mm TB?

I started my install this past weekend, but had too many things to do, so I will finish up this weekend, and report how the 2650 does. Stay tuned.

I'm going to run the 123mm also.

160 as well.

I got the 2.8, but may eventually go to a 3.0 since we only have 91 octane in the Phoenix area.. I actually just got it today (the pulley)

Mine is sitting in the garage, waiting for pulley from VMP, and tuning support for the 160mm TB, hopefully have installed it in the next 10 days..
