[QUOTE="WOPONY98, post: 4746796, member: 29606"] I have a 98 Cobra with a crap load of mods to include full exhaust, and Accufab TB single blade. With the V2 I made 420rwhp and 360tq. This was off the stock kit. I wasn't happy. :cuss: According to Vortech you should see 130+ hp gain over your stock numbers on a stock engine. I was putting down NA 300rwhp. 30rwhp over stock. This should have equated on the Vortech SC when tuned also. I didn't use the free Chip that comes with the kit that you have to send away for. Its a diablo chip tuned by Vortech for you mods. Your car isn't even dyno'd so you have no idea what you are getting. Now my tune (SCT) was done by Mike Murillio out of San Antonio Texas. Nationally renowned for his tuning and 7 time OutLaw Class Champion. My car ran FAT on Fuel Pressure. Now this is good and although a problem that can only be corrected slightly (SN95) with a tune its a good problem to have. Now I will tell you I had underdrive pullies on my Cobra you will have to go back to the stock pullies on your Mustang before you add the S/C. Mainly just the Crank Pulley. While your at it you might as well do your tensioner pulley and bracket also if you have an older car. Not to mention the Irridium Plugs. Okay now that you have heard my experience here is what I was told to buy to fix the problem with RWHP and TQ. Ditch the Vortech FMU and buy a Fuel Pressure Regulator, 42lbs injectors, and a 80mm or larger MAF with the smaller pulley for your S/C. This according to Mike will put you at or close to 500rwhp. I would not recommend on a stock engine SVT or not to push 500rwhp for a daily driver without forging or running a safe tune. Other problems of the added S/C HP, TQ.... Upgrade your rear axle 31 spline before you hook and snap your axle. Its amazing what you don't find out until you buy and attempt to put on the S/C all the :bs: you have to add to your car to get the numbers you want....:cuss: On another note I am happy with Vortech the product it performs great on the car and once tuned and running I have had no issues with it.
